(This is a summary of list. For the details, click here.)
10. "We're going to sue them and sue them and sue them."
9. �and Sue Their Parents and Sue Their Doctors�
8. Banning Diet Soda in Schools
7. The �Zoning� Diet � Keep Restaurants Out of Town
6. Hiding Candy Behind the Counter
5. No Sharing of Snacks at School
4. National Food Czar
3. Sin Tax on Restaurant Meals Under Four Dollars
2. Carding for Candy
1. Completely Dismiss Personal Responsibility
All of these ideas are antithetical to living in a free society. Personal responsibility is the most important thing. Everyone is responsible for their own food consumption. Evil corporations don�t make you put a single Twinkie, donut or Big Mac into your mouth.
