>> Impose a weight limit for food stamps.

Given the impact of diabetes, impose a carb limit.

An exercise requirement would be better. Also, require social workers to set an example. Periodical PT tests would do it.

PT tests for police, teachers, regulators and administrators, too. We don’t pay them to be slobs.

Impose a weight limit for food stamps.

No weight limit, no food stamps, no EBT cards. If the government wants to give nutrition assistance to the poor, it should be buying food and distributing that. Make them queue up to get their weekly ration of meat, cheese, milk, flour, etc. Nothing that can be treated as a fungible currency; give them the food directly.
