NPR was ranting about obesity again, this morning.

I have a solution: a law that requires people to eat at least one apple a day. The phytochemicals in apples are proving to be mighty anticancer warriors. And recent studies seem to show that apples can help prevent colon cancer.

This law is no sillier than any other, and as long as we are legislating what people can eat, drink and smoke, there's no reason we can't FORCE people to eat apples in the name of lowering health care costs. This is just another way the government can save us from ourselves. Legislating apples. How will this save tax dollars? First, obviously, it will keep the doctor away.

Are you listening John?
