Your $1 Trillion at Work: Policing Vending Machines

The Weekly Standard’s Mary Katharine Ham finds the following in Nancy Pelosi’s 1,990-page healthcare monstrosity:

Pg. 1516 regulates vending machines: In the case of an article of food sold from a vending machine that ‘‘(I) does not permit a prospective purchaser to examine the Nutrition Facts Panel before purchasing the article or does not otherwise provide visible nutrition information at the point of purchase; and ‘‘(II) is operated by a person who is engaged in the business of owning or operating 20 or more vending machines, the vending machine operator shall provide a sign in close proximity to each article of food or the selection button that includes a clear and conspicuous statement disclosing the number of calories contained in the article.

That should make Grandma feel  better about the Medicare cuts.
