Nationwide within 10 years. West Virginia or Kentucky will be the only hold out, so it will become federal and the fedgov will withhold highway funds from states not participating.

We've lost the fight. But at least they are coming after fat people next.

We haven't lost the war yet though.

If smokers stop going out to private businesses that can no longer accommodate them, and if smokers started rolling their own cigarettes which is quite legal.  (All cities and towns have a Smoke Shop for the supplies), then the lawmakers WILL have to go after someone else to make up for all the lost revenue that the smokers have dumped into the economy all these years.  The states are going to lose big time!

And believe me, they will go after someone else.  Like you said:  overweight people are already on the chopping block.
