NYC Mayor wants to "lock up" baby formula

[Anonymous]

"New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg just unveiled a health initiative that he hopes will encourage new moms to breastfeed. The plan? Ask hospitals to treat formula like any other regulated substance, keeping it locked up and given out only under certain conditions." Here's the full article:

So what do people think? Is he going too far?

Sure, this is great -

Next step, women should not work either because it's better for them to stay home to bond with the baby. Come on Mayor Bloomberg - force breastfeeding for women and force them to stay home!

Yeah!

It is good
Hospitals should be banned from providing free formula samples

And women do need paid maternity leave. Did the mayor forget that?

Why can't people connect the dots?

I like Michael Bloomberg. He's well-intentioned. But this really defines nanny state.

If anything, formula should be given out more freely so we can reverse this perverse obsession with breastfeeding that is destroying the confidence of so many new mothers.

Actually I think the rationale is what's best for society as a whole so the bottle fed babies don't get fat and tax our health resources.

Guess some things just refuse to change: men thinking they know best what women should / should not be doing with their bodies.

My bottle fed babies are tall and lean. What's your point, asshole?

Furthermore, what do you suggest to a mother who's adopted an infant? Or to the sick mother who's had a difficult and perhaps life-threatening delivery?

Simmer down, twatwaffle. I'm on your side. I was just explaining the policy rationale. I didn't say I agree with it.
