The nanny state protecting us from those eating Tide Pods...

Okay, so we've all heard about the Tide Pod eating challenge, and now big nanny government has come to the rescue, by forcing Tide to change the look of their pods to make them "less edible".

If your kid is over age seven and is so stupid that he has to be told not to eat laundry detergent, it's not Tides fault. It's not the schools fault. It is your own fault, along with the kid maybe. Unless the kid has a legit, cognitive disability then you have failed somewhere along the road of parenthood. 

This goes to show a bigger issue. The nanny state takes a problem and punishes the people who aren't responsible in the first place. Also, if Tide is forced by state law to change the color of it's detergent, it'll effect their business and their bottom line. Tide didn't request this. They didn't tell people to eat their detergent. 

It's currently being debated in the New York statehouse but I'm confident it'll be coming to a statehouse near you.
