Blogprof: put warning labels on compact cars
November 12, 2010
Since the federal government wants to put horrifying and disgusting pictures on packs of cigarettes, The Blogprof suggests:
Feds should propose graphic warning labels on small cars they are pushing rather than cigarettes.
He’s got examples. Me, I think it’s a great idea. What else should the Feds require warning labels on?
- Happy Meals;
- Movie theater popcorn;
- Hollywood propaganda thinly disguised as entertainment;
- Dallas Cowboys* tickets;
More: back on the cigarettes, Brian J. Noggle says:
Back in the old days, cigars and whatnot came with baseball cards. Now they come with collectible government propoganda.
See you on Ebay.
* I’d have suggested Minnesota Vikings tickets, but, really, shouldn’t we all know better by now even without a government warning?
CFL bulbs. Maybe images of a wing-heeled Mercury beating infants to death with his caduceus.
Excellent idea. At the very least, CFL packaging should include the EPA’s recommended “cleanup” procedures for a broken bulb:
