- Bloomberg changed the law so he could have three terms but supports two terms for all the other NYC mayors
- Bloomberg proposed taxing the poor so that they had no discretionary income to spend on anything he defines as unhealthy. He actually said this: “That’s the good thing about them because the problem is in people who don’t have a lot of money. And so higher taxes should have a bigger impact on their behavior and how they deal with themselves.” When countered, Bloomberg defended his stance by saying “Well, we want the poor to live longer so they can get an education and enjoy life.” Nanny knows best. (Bloomberg’s plan includes more taxes than Biden’s)
- Bloomberg invited himself into labor and delivery rooms by pushing new moms to breastfeed and through his Latch On NYC program, requiring them to explain their private choice to the hospital if they chose (or health resulted in) formula feeding before being given formula (which was kept locked away)

You just do not want the average citizen carrying a gun in a crowded place.”
