Obama Begins "Lifestyle Health Modification" Program, Mandating Behavioural Changes in US Society
Zero Hedge ^ | 6-13-10 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 06/13/2010 6:15:05 PM PDT by kirbyu

Last week, with little fanfare, among the ever deteriorating oil spill crisis, the White House quietly noted the issuance of an executive order "Establishing the National Prevention, Health Promotion, and Public Health Council", in which the president, citing the “authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America” is now actively engaging in "lifestyle behavior modification" for American citizens that do not exhibit "healthy behavior." At least initially, the 8 main verticals of focus will include: smoking cessation; proper nutrition; appropriate exercise

Was Hitler not a health fanatic..

Yes, a vegan as I recall...

No, both Hitler and Mussolini were Lacto-Fruititarians according to a health magazine I read years ago. Man I wouldn't want to be in a peoples car with them when they broke wind.

On a serious note, we are beyond help.

At this point I can't even see "Sarah" undoing all these executive orders and all the apparatus this clown is building. It may fall part under its own weight, negative inertia, and corruption like the Soviet Union did.

Here's how the new president does it. He, or she, issues an executive order staying all previous executive orders pending review. Then one by one they are examined, judged, and, by executive order, kept, modified, or discarded and there will be nothing anyone, except for the next president, can do about it.

Appropriate exercise. Well I guess at the age of 55, racing bicycles is likely to be considered inappropriate. How dare I be “better than average”.

Now thinking of places to tell Zero to ride - without a helmet, and where he’s guaranteed to crash. I can think of a few velodromes.

FUBO! I salute you with the soles of my shoes!

And right behind that, STDs, caused by the “sexual revolution.”

And we know which group requires the highest funding to fix their STDs. No mention of a study group to help people curve that behavior, of course.

That he dare invoke the Constitution of the United States — that so many fought and died for — to justify this disgusting piece of communist executive action makes it a crime of great historic significance.

He swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

With this executive action, he is officially wiping his ass with it.

This mandate is a waste of time. They’ve already instituted a much more effective lifestyle behavior modification - Obamacare. It’s a great incentive to get healthy.
