I guess we'll have to try something different.....

I know, maybe we should make everybody poor, then they won't be too fat! To be fair, what shot did this idea have, really? Great so people know, if they go in to a restaurant, how many calories they're eating. And? Until they make asparagus that tastes good, it's not going to matter, not in the West, when most of us have a decent amount of money. I just hope this seeming failure doesn't lead to even more draconian measures, like disallowing McDonald's etc. in neighborhoods that are deemed "bad" spots for the restaurants. Of course, that assumes that this measure had more to do with actually helping people then "doing something" about a perceived problem. I do wonder sometimes what's healthier for people being skinny or being happy?
