Obama To Fatties: Put down that pork chop!

Pork_ChopYou’re too fat. That’s what the government thinks, at least. They say obesity is a huge problem in America. Isn’t that nice? The government is concerned about your health. Well, not really. They’re just concerned about how much it will cost to treat you. This is a foretaste of what Obamacare would be like. The government dictating what we can and can’t eat, and how much. Yesterday, the CDC recommended restrictions on portion sizes, the availability of unhealthy foods and beverages, and limits on the advertising of unhealthy foods. The recommendations are for public venues, with more widespread restrictions in the future. CDC Director Thomas Frieden recommended a tax on sugary drinks, decreases in the availability of unhealthy foods and increased prices. Former fatty himself, Bill Clinton, got in on the act adding “We have to change what goes on at home, in the community, the neighborhood and schools.” If Obama has his way, the government will invite itself to your dinner table and never leave.
