November 1998: tobacco companies lose their case with the government and are forced to pay restitution

Early 2000's: McDonalds began being sued by people who claimed it made them fat, and responded by posting nutritional information

2005: The Obesity Action Coalition was formed

I believe that soon McDonalds and everyone else who serves fatty food will begin to suffer the same wrath directed at tobacco companies. People don't take responsibility for their own actions or how they raise their kids. Already they are getting rid of soda in school cafeterias and a myriad of other steps have been taken to eradicate fatty food and drink. People's health must be regulated not because anybody actually cares, but because it affects the cost of health care. IMO

I fully agree with what you said and I also think, they do it because they can....there's been so many "laws" already on the books they can't enforce what's already been yet they insist on controlling more and more of what we eat, drink and breath:(:(:( Seems these days it's just easier to have ridiculous laws passed than for people to take responsibility for their own choices. "Big Brother" seems to get bigger every day:(:(:(
