‘What Makes New Yorkers Live Longer?’ (2012)

Salt, sodas, smoking: Bloomberg's bans | CNN

Did I mention he banned salt, too?

Memory Lane is opening a new pseudo-science wing to preserve such absurdities as the following.

Remember, in 2012, a “Scientific Study” by The Lancet  “showed” (sorry for the quote marks; but in this case they are necessary) that thanks to Mayor Mike Bloomberg’s meddling in their personal lives, New Yorkers were living longer!

What Makes New Yorkers Live Longer?

I say what with him banning soda, sugar, smoking, snacks, you name it, life only seems longer to those who have to live with Bloomberg treating them all like naughty little children.

Well, Bloomberg is gone, memory of that “study” has largely passed away… and I would hazard a guess that life in New York seems longer still.

Unless some psycho stabs you on the subway.
