Its totally absurd. When they stop selling ciggaretts, alchohol, the war is over, we have a back up when we run out of oil, gas prices go down, the mass of foreclosures are under control, education is 100% everywhere, no one is starving on the streets, and no children/spouses/animals are being abused, then our government can have time to think up idiotic bills to propose.

A class of 5th graders could do a better job leading our country.

whoo! you go girl!! couldnt have said it better!!

Well, it seems they just keep taking freedoms away, one by one.

This is ridiculous and seems prejudicial.

i think they did that because they were comparing this to the days when whites were the only ones allowed in public places....

Megan you ARE very wise I agree, this nation has MUCH bigger fish to fry (haha pun INTENDED) than to deal with something as assinine as that.

**SIGH**

This really bothers me. I thought about this ALL last night! I wondered about people's responses to it. I thought about that 'move to the back of the bus' Rosa Parks thing, and whats the difference? How can a country "ONE NATION under GOD..." divide its people by obese or not categories?

I realize this guy wanted an extreme reaction, but honestly I know obesity is a problem in our nation and is taking a toll on people healthwise and the insurance industry as well, but there HAS to be other ways to handle it. I think more FREE programs for those that want help, educate people on how to eat right, encourage exercise (tax write off maybe for a membership?). (everything costs the almighty dollar and people can't squeeze MORE from their paychecks with the cost of everything on the rise so high)

Also being single (the divorce rate is so high now) its almost always cheaper and easier for ONE person to just go through a fast food drive thru than cook and eat good healthy food. If you think about it, every action has sooooo many reactions and affects sooooo many areas of our lives, its amazing how it all fits together.

Would you link obesity to divorce? However when looking at the big pic and men and women that once had a wife/husband who cooked OR they cooked for 2 or more people suddenly are alone and not wanting to cook for one, so they eat out. With the price of groceries, sometimes its easier to get a meal somewhere, its prepared, no mess, ready to eat and with portion sizes being so out of control, they usually have leftovers to make 2 meals out of one. So they do.

Maybe Gov can regulate PORTION sizes! Something like that... I dunno... I just do not see this as the solution to the problem. its ridiculous!
