The communists that have infiltrated are government are pining for the ways of China. Go to Hell, communists!
Yeah, have a social worker talk people out of being fat, that should work.
our government
Nanny State PING!
This is about far more than fat people and tax deductible dieting. If it was that much I’d say fine, make these diet programs tax deductible and see what happens.
This is about jolly well anything the high muckety mucks think they ought to do about people’s health no matter how quixotic. Imagine Bloomberg with PPACA powers.
Hey! Wait a minute! I AM fat!!!
Thanks for the ping! And... congratulations!
Fat people are the last to die in a Famine.
Skinny people are the first to die.
Remember that next time you decide on the Salad rather than the Big Mac.
OK..they can start the program with that fat lady in the uniform...the Sturgeon General. If they can get her to loose about 50 lbs they can trumpet their success.
Geez, what’s next? Taxpayer funded contraception and abortion?
“Obese” Americans should demand that powah-hungry, lowlife politicians and “public servants” also be required to get “counseling”. Preferably the kind that involves frequent ass kickings by two doctors named Vinnie and Louie.
As much as I detest this, I am chuckling a bit at the thought of what some overweight liberals I know will think when they’re assigned a therapist to counsel them on their weight. Compliments of their hero Obama.
Eliminate food stamps to anyone who is overweight.
Historically, that might have been true for some time, but maybe not today. And we haven't seen famine since the USSR.
The flip side is that some skinny people eat the Big Mac AND the salad and the fries.
I don't expect to be the first one down. ;)

This obese classification is so stupid I want to scream.
I took my five year old grandson for his kindergarten check up and he was declared obese because of the federal guild lines.
The doc kept reweighing him, she said good god I can count his ribs, he is not obese.
Yet, he became part of the fed statistics.
I am beginning to loath any/all federal guild lines.
Wheat Belly diet? Is that anything like the beer belly diet?
I guarantee that the government will get the correct science necessary to give good advice. For an insight into some of the newest science on the matter, here is this post from today:

It is becoming evident that it is the type of calories we eat and not how much of them you can burn off.
Or where you’ve gone from a six-pack to a full keg.
Like in catastrophic anthropogenic global warmism?
