Bloomberg on his cup-size law: "All we're saying is we want to show you just how big the cup is."

"If you want 32 ounces, take two cups to your seat. If you want 64, carry four. But our hope is, if you only take one, you won't go back."

He's just showing us things that maybe we didn't understand before.

We're not banning anything. We're trying to urge them to tell the public -- we're tr-- our job is to educate. It's the public's job to decide when they look on the grocery shelf or have the lever on a soda machine, which thing to take, which product is in their interest. All we're trying to do is educate. And then hopefully, if they understand they would be better off with one product or another....

So it's not really fair to call him Nanny Bloomberg. It should be Schoolmarm Bloomberg.
