The incredible shrinking potato chip bag might be reasonably construed as an attempt by my betters to restrict my consumption of tasty, salty, fat-laden tubers, but in this case it's actually just corporate trickery. I'm a dedicated capitalist but I don't like being manipulated by Big Snack Food any more than by Big Government. Ugh… don’t get me started on the government’s desire to tell me what’s good for me.

I've actually grown to somewhat like the Post lately, if only for the editorial section, which is full of smart writers, especially on local issues, where the Post is often the only voice opposing some of the more destructive nonsense imposed by the Democratic machine here in NYC. Yuk yuk.
