Monday, July 22, 2002Watch out, the Health Totalitarians are gearing up to bring the same weapons they routinely use against tobacco and alcohol to food. Only it will be worse. They can just look at you and tell if you are guilty of misusing food. Obesity is fundamentally a personal problem, not a public health problem. I can not follow my patients home and cook their meals for them or do their grocery shopping for them. I can not stand next to them with a whip and make them exercise. I can only give them advice and counsel, what they do with that advice and counsel is their own business and their own choice, not the business of the US government or insurance companies. And who in their right mind wants the government to regulate what kind of food we can eat? Yuck. Puritanism at its worst. posted by Sydney on 7/22/2002 05:36:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
