So they ban unlimited refills but what's stopping restaurants from offering up 10 refills? 5?
Wait, places in France offered refills? WTF!?! I never got a free refill there. I drank wine and beer because they were cheapest. Fucking water didn't get refills.

Fuck off.The government is telling no one how much they can or cannot drink. The law applies to the providers (restaurants, bars) only. Nothing is stopping anyone from buying as many drinks as they want. Just because restaurants just can't offer cups with unlimited soda refills anymore doesn't mean you can't buy 3 different cups and chug as much soda as you want.

There's absolutely no reason to make someone buy 3 drinks instead of 1, or a large drink instead of a small one. This whole law is so backwards and retarded.Stop worrying about the obesity "crisis". Let people be as fat as they want to be, and do nothing to hinder them. Having good health is not the government business, it's the individual's choice.

Liberalism fails because it's just as good as anarchy.Wrong. The fact that life is imposed on the individual will always mean that the individual's private choices for themselves trump the state of the society.If we were somehow given a choice of whether or not to be born, then living people would have an obligation to sacrifice autonomy for the good of the system they willingly entered. Since that's obviously impossible, though, that's not how it works.

Only the ones who have the mental strength to make their own choices with certainty have the privilege of truly knowing what they want, and only those who are powerful enough have the privilege to make their own choices a reality when society deems it illegal and wrong.
I'd love to see an explanation as to why free refills are somehow a human right.
France bans unlimited free soda refills
