"The Fight for Obesity"

In Jonathan Ninh's post, "The Fight for Obesity", he does a short, yet solid analysis of obesity today in America. Americans have tried to address the problem, but it is too late for this generation. Eating habits are formed as people grow up. In all honesty, it should not be up to our government, it is up to the families that make up our society to teach their children healthy eating habits. The only way our government can try and help the issue is by either requiring elementary schools to offer health courses or to include it in the physical education courses they already offer. Otherwise, the American public is in charge of its own eating habits.
