Let's Fine the Fatties

Who's with me?

Quote:
Why are the Japanese so slender? There are three reasons, and none of them has to do with genetics. One is the traditional Japanese diet, which is heavy on fish, vegetables, and rice. The second is Japan's mass-transit-centered urban design, which encourages Japanese people to walk a lot more than Americans. But the third factor is paternalism. Japan's government takes an active role in combating any hint of an upward trend in fatness.

In 2008, Japan's diet passed a law designed to combat "metabolic syndrome," which is known to Americans as "pre-diabetes." The so-called "Metabo Law" requires overweight individuals, or individuals who show signs of weight-related illnesses, to go to dieting classes. If they fail to attend the classes, the companies that employ them and/or the local governments of the areas in which they live must pay fines to the federal government. In addition, companies with more than a certain percentage of overweight employees are fined directly.

Well there are Japanese sumo wrestlers. The fines seem to be enforced and centered around employment since employers are the ones held accountable for noncompliance. I'm sure certain occupations are/would be exempt.

There are a couple of other reasons that the Japanese are thin. One is a cultural taboo against gluttony. Most of the older folk don't eat very much (the younger people are succumbing to the Western influence and are eating more, especially junk food).

The other is that a lot of them smoke, which is a proven appetite suppressant.

If the fat people ever got successfully organized, they'd have incredible clout (considering most of the people in this country are deemed overweight) but the meetings would probably be crowded and sweaty.

Would my big fat cock get fined?

Post #400 had to be about my penis. It just felt like the right thing to do.

. Who's going to pay for the classes? THE TAXPAYERS. Man OP is dumb. And it would be cheaper to fire those people than take a fine. Unemployment goes through the roof. Please delete this reeruned thread or move it to DC.
