Comments on: Health Nazis’ Next Target: Obesity Requires Global Action “Like Climate Change” http://www.bloggernews.net/113896 High-quality English language analysis and editorial writing on the news.

They wouldn't dream of seriously researching the subject, it's easier to believe the health nazis, and not have to put up with it anymore. I believe there is a town in Canada that has banned virtually all scents. http://www.fumento.com/halifax2.html It's all very scary. I often wonder if this strange behavior is related to a pampered, wealthy society. All our easy-living has turned us into a bunch of delicate, over-sensitive neurotics Excellent article.
