article i saw

mind boggling to think that people are advocating the govt literally taking children from families to raise them for raising them to eat unhealthy.  People, like these experts, confuse good ideas with good policy.  Look im not saying dont get the fat ass kids' some help, but for the govt to step in?  Not to mention the added cost of care for these behemoths.  The problem is people, like it or not, have the right to be fat just like they can smoke or drink or drive an unsafe car or have unprotected sex. 

Bottom line: make the help available and not mandatory.  Everyones happy.

Bottom line is the shit in the foods
Bottom line most people can't afford to purchase good quality food
Bottom line these are twisted sick fucks

I dont buy that most people cant afford food.

What i do think is that people are too lazy to buy food and make that food for their kids, and instead drive on down to the micky d's which is easier for them in the short term.

Come on, how much does bread, lunchmeat, and fresh fruit cost?  Not much.
