Devil's advocate here....
 
But to me, YOUR gun is more dangerous than YOUR cheeseburger.  
 
@SandyKnee:
 
Let's not overlook the point. Both outcomes are a result of bad choices. It's about society's decision making skills and how they pursue what they want regardless of the availability of the tools to do it.
 
In other words, you can no more prevent obesity deaths by banning certain food items than you can prevent violent deaths by banning certain guns. 4951

That's not worth the calories or the socially awkward status that comes with it. 4951

I wish there were such a thing as a Cheese Gun. I would ask you to shoot me with it. LOLThe cheese is staying on the burger. I'm not fat, and you gotta die of something. EmoticonEmoticon 4951

Obesity in this country is a serious problem and getting worse. The stats are depressing. One that really stood out to me is that Veterans are more obese than the general population according the the VA by a good percentage. I think a good solution would be to create a real financial incentive. So, a health provider proposes a contract. They will give you $5000 at the end of the year if you meet your target weight. If you miss it, you owe them $1200 or something or scale how much they owe to how much they lost. We need some creative thinking to motivate people IMO.    4951

@beastmode:
 
Paying in will never fly but not getting paid would probably motivate some.
Hard for me to believe we still have people smoking. Not only do you **** money away on nothing, it will kill you. I guess the gene pool eventually works that out. 4951

@ET: I don't have any words of wisdom other than what we are doing is not working. It's getting worse. Have to try something at that point.
