Something else found in the 2000+ pages of Obamacare. This one affects any vending machine operator that operates 20 or more vending machines. Now the calorie count on all items in those vending machines will have to be visible to anyone using the machine. The vending industry says it will take 18 million man-hours a year to meet this requirement. That's 18 million man-hours not used in any productive activity designed to improve the company's bottom line. Eighteen million hours which constitute nothing but government-mandated non-productive busy work.
There's something else here that I haven't seen anyone comment on. What about the blind! (Damn! Excuse me! I surely meant to say "visually impaired.") Just how are blind folks going to know how many calories there are in whatever they're buying? Never mind you have to get past the problem of how they're going to use the machine in the first place ... what about the calorie label? I smell a regulatory amendment coming. Not only will vending machine operators have to post the calorie count .. .but they're going to have to do it in Braille as well. Let's up that 18 million man-hours to 25 million or so ... still with no contribution to the bottom line.

And what about those who don't speak English? Better make that 35 million of so hours.
*Sigh...*
This is what happens when the government assumes powers NOT enumerated in the constitution! You get this sort of insanity that only gives the government ever more power to seize our wealth and our freedoms.
This madness must be stopped!
