"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences.
-- C. S. Lewis

Take some advice from a former fat man.
You don’t ever want to be a fat man.
It will kill you.

Exactly. Someone actually read what this guy wrote.
Yeah, exercise, cut down on the calories - all good. But this guy proposes having the government taxing certain items it deems undesirable and banning other “undesirable” items. Great! Now our nanny government bosses will decide what is desirable for us and what is not, because, according to this clown, individuals are incapable of making adjustments and the government minders must step in and help us.
Just great. My gosh are people really this brain dead?
