In Mississippi, the poorest state in the USA with a 30% adult obesity rate, a bill has been introduced to make it illegal to serve fat people in restaurants.  Specifically, the legislation reads,HOUSE BILL NO. 282...An act to prohibit certain food establishments from serving food to any person who is obese, based on criteria prescribed by the state

A girl in one of my classes last night leaned over and mentioned this to me, she thought it was hilarious. I agree with your notion that accessibility to quality food and exercise on the cheap (this aspect isn't discussed as much, the severely lower class cannot afford gym dues, ipods, trainers, fresh running kicks, ect) is a huge factor in obesity.

If they want to do that to fat people, they'd better be prepared to lose a shitload of money... We likes to eat!!!
