Oh boy

How a national food policy could save millions of American lives - The Washington Post

Only those with a vested interest in the status quo would argue against creating public policies with these goals.

I'm holding out hope for a National Coitus Policy.

He has good points. Americans might not care about a lot of freedoms, but they will revolt if you start messing with their diet.

It is this unbridled freedom of diet and lifestyle with respect to public healthcare money that creates the problem.

Something has to give.

parts of that article made no sense. it complains on one hand about how there are too many agencies already involved in the food industry, yet his recommendation is to create another that would talk to the others. in the US where inter-agency cooperation is terrible and bound up in so much red tape its disgusting.

I'd say it's pretty simple - change the HC system to link the cost more directly to behavior instead of less the way ACA is doing.

That's easier said than done.

Accountability is one part. Discrimination and complaints of sexism, racism, and hating the poor would be thrown in.

Politically, it would be hell to try to legislate and implement.

I like a National Food Policy. I see $$$$ to be made from a bootleg Twinkie business.

Far left thinking is extremely frightening.

Far left thinking is extremely frightening.

Yes it is. It is as frightening as far right thinking.

 

[FLVOL69]

Yes it is. It is as frightening as far right thinking.

They're not the ones proposing this bs.

 

[CNCVol88]

Yes it is. It is as frightening as far right thinking.

While I agree both extremes are frightening I feel much more threatened by the extreme left than the right at this point in history.

I think a national food policy would be ridiculous. I do admire Michelle for trying to encourage healthy eating.
