Sounds great. What regulations do you suggest? I think insurance companies should charge fat people higher premiums, the same way they might charge smokers more. yes, let's charge everyone! Let's charge a person with mental illness more while you are at it! and if your kid gets sick- double the rates! wtf? before you start pointing fingers, why don't you tell us what is your body fat percentage.

Yes Ivan, I have been to the South, so I understand and comprehend the concept of humidity. Also I have tasted the food people eat there. I bet lack of ability to exercise stems more from deep fried shit piles they eat, then from the heat and humidity. I understand that (like drug and alcohol abuse) overeating and obesity are a disease, and should be treated as such. But in order for people to get better, rest of us have to stop giving them a laundry list of excuses. I work with fat people every day, some of them in a lot of pain. I try to educate them and convince them, that it is their PERSONAL responsibility to take care of their body. Giving excuses is not helping. The fact of the matter is, that any healthcare system in this country is doomed, unless you re-regulate food industry.

but, given that assuring access to healthcare is a fundemental requirement for a civilized nation, aren't you going to be the first to shit kittens when nefarious government agents call for "social engineering" by demanding excercise, control over diets, and the right to deny care to those deemed "unfit?" you sure ever phatty out there just "doesn't care" about his health? no role for genetics? where they live (christ, good luck staying in shape in alabama in the middle of summer!)? their job? access to whole-foods n' la fitnesses? i mean i like to hate a man as much as the next guy, and fatties can't hardly chase you down, but seeing as how skinny folks drop dead of cancer n' heart problems too, i'm not sure that these guys should be public enemeies #1... Now THAT is a pile of crap. So let's start with genetics. I am sure the genetics in Africa and African Americans aren't so different, same with population originating from Europe. While you'll have maybe 5-7% obesity due to genetic or other disorders outside of the US, why are African Americans obese at the same rate, which is about 70%. Stop with these excuses- there are NONE. The fact of the matter is in 2003 Group Health study found teenagers consuming 1800 calories per day in the form of soft drinks and an average calorie intake of 3900 for adults. Simple math shows- too much too eat and not enough energy output. People are free to choose whatever fucking lifestyle they want. But if you decide to be fat, you lose your right to bitch about healthcare cost. Unless you sign DNR and that is fine. So no healthy food in places- again it's simple. If people demand it, they will start selling better food. Don't like Wallmart- don't go and buy there- IT IS THAT SIMPLE!. And contrary to your ignorant statement skinny people are way less likely to develop cardio-vascular disease or cancer. There are statistics to back up my statement.

I am not for getting rid of services, but what people have to realize, that the raising cost of healthcare is on par with increased costs of providing medical services. The increase need for medical services is due in vast majority due to obesity related illnesses. Even chronic pain in most cases are due to shitty diet, access weight and lack of exercise. We are spending 200 billion dollars on unnecessary back surgeries. In more then 80% of cases all these patients will redevelop pain. There is zero preventiveness, people in general don't care about their health. THAT is a real reason for cost increase.
-
With 70% obese or overweight, the raise of cost of healthcare is normal. Why people don't understand, that THIS IS WHAT IT TAKES TO KEEP FAT ASSES ALIVE! you want to lower healthcare cost? LOSE FUCKING WEIGHT! Otherwise STFU!

If there is one thing the government should never do, it's spend. My ideal government would be so small, it would be non-existent, and would be so broke, nothing would be spent -- ever. = prosperity!!! well, in Somalia there government is non-existant. I don't think many people want to relocate there. Also I don't think their economy is thriving. So there goes that argument.

From B&H page lens review: "Use it for photography of bands and Visio and that jazz really good lens really like the unclekt apetcher and its a really good fish eye effect for a asp-c Lens it's like using a canon 15mm 2.8 on a full frame gives it a really nice wide vue Bad things about it it take a bit to get use to Manuel apetuer and focus but is well worth it and wish the apituer went done further like 2.8 ish but is a gr8 lens Yes, I would recommend this to a friend" With minds like this talking the place at the helm, the future looks bright and we have nothing to worry about.

I guess your brain is on meltdown dial after weed is legal now?

If you think it's so great, why don't you relocate there? I know this country is far from perfect, but at least there is degree of sanity among some. I would encourage you to get your ass on a plane and see for yourself how other parts of the world look like.

Growing up behind the iron curtain I can assure you USA and n korea are not alike . The fact of this conversation via internet just points out to the obvious difference. Most likely your political posts would land you in one of the wonderful labor camps, where you'd perish due to malnutrition while conducting 18 hours per day of heavy labor.

To even attempt to compare US and n Korea you have to be totally FUCKED IN THE HEAD!

On the other hand no reason to blow the balloon too hard, as it might burst.

I have done my share of steep ice, and pretty much no such thing as WI7. Maybe in Quebec I climb on a shale cliff over a snapped pillar, where you had to do two consecutive figure 4's, through horizontal ice roof. People tend to mix technical difficulties with mental challenge of the route.
