Should the government protect you from salt?

A NYS Assemblyman, Felix Ortiz, has authored the above linked bill. It would ban the use of salt in prepration for all meals served in all restaurants in New York State. No, I’m not joking.
By far the most absurd and offensive part of this (IMO) is that Ortiz claims this bill will give us the option of whether or not to include salt in our meals (salt would still be available on the table, just not in the food). Apparently because we’re unable to tell the waitress when we order “No salt, please.”, and we need the government to do that for us.
So what do you think? Do you need your government to save you from the horrors of salt?
