Bad Idea... This will make the governmnt responsible for obesity. I am not saying that it is not a sickness, but it is up to the individual to take responsibility for themselves. Once the government gets involved, watch out. You will see restaurants shutting down, candy removed from stores, and that is just the beginning.

You may have rolled your eyes at my previous post in this thread, but that is where we are headed. People have shunned all personal responsibility, and if that is what they want to do, there will be hell to pay. I am booking a one-way ticket to Costa Rica the second they outlaw my right to eat a York Peppermint Patty...
