Victory: McDonald’s outsmarts San Francisco on Happy Meal ban « Hot Air

Victory: McDonald’s outsmarts San Francisco on Happy Meal ban « Hot Air: "Today and tomorrow mark the last days that put-upon parents can satiate their youngsters by simply throwing down $2.18 for a Happy Meal toy. But, thanks to the new law taking effect on Dec. 1, this is no longer permitted. Now, in order to have the privilege of making a 10-cent charitable donation in exchange for the toy, you must buy the Happy Meal. Hilariously, it appears Mar et al., in their desire to keep McDonald’s from selling grease and fat to kids with the lure of a toy have now actually incentivized the purchase of that grease and fat — when, beforehand, a put-upon parent could get out cheaper and healthier with just the damn toy."

Let's get the government involved. Can't wait until they solve the "bullying problem".
