#3 When are they going to put labels on those super-caffeinated power drinks, that taken in quantity have induced heart attacks? That strikes me as a good deal more immediate than diabetes twenty years down the road...

Concern trolls and cause junkies, demonstrating their piety by being ever so much purer than the prols who obviously don't know enough to care.

#4 It's like a religion - they need to SAVE you, from Satan, or yourself, or the evil corporations. It gives them purpose for their lives.
I guess the logic is that now that the state is responsible for your health care it needs to make sure you live more healthily. Coming soon - dawn PT runs to breakfast at the communal dining facility.

#5 Any food item containing calories can contribute to obesity. I would suggest a warning on food stamps and any other GIVERnemt program that encourages slothfulness.

#6 I'd love to see some of these clowns try and keep up with me on a thirty mile bike ride...
