N.J. Takes Candy From Babies

Caputo says he is worried about caffeine's effect on children. I assume energy drink prohibition for minors will be a lot like alcohol prohibition, with Red Bull speakeasies and armies of Protestant women destroying cases of Monster with axes.
There is no word if Caputo knows children can get the same effect from drinking, say, three cans of soda as they can from drinking a Red Bull. And with how expensive that disgusting stuff is, I have to assume it might even be cheaper.

This sort of grand standing should not be tolerated. Every actual study (not some fear mongering article with nothing but speculation backing it up) I saw found no particular danger in caffeine in children.

How much more control over our lives will we allow the government to take? Whatever happened to personal responsibility?
