Got some more information about the subject and why we are in such a mess now with health care.


1. Obesity Statistics. Great for learning about how many americans are "obese" and gives you a little picture on the problem.  http://www.americansportsdata.com/obesitystats.asp


2. Why are we so fat?- a good publication on what is contributing to Obesity. http://www.nutrition4health.org/nohanews/NNSp94AmericansFat.htm


3. Obesity the #1 killer in america! This is the bread and butter of this post. It underlies why americans are having decreased quality of life and what is holding down and litterly clogging up our health care system. obesity is leading to a plethrow of other problems like diabetes, heart disease, and so forth. Helping to bring the system to a hault and monetarily dampering our heath care system. I only post this to just inform about the problems and subjects not to pass to much judgement. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/6438.php


4. The cost of obesity. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/07/27/health/main5190909.shtml
