LOL. Another "solution" that you are magically not subject to.

Have you taken a look at California. Fat capitol of the country I think. Not having millions of illegal aliens would reduce the U.S. output of "greenhouse gasses" too wouldn't it. There's a solution I could get behind. Oops, sorry, I shouldn't say "get behind". Trunky might be reading this and get all excited. I won't have to see it, sorry to do that to you. :-)

The most obese states are in the South, Mississippi, Arkansas, South
Carolina etc. Some of the fittest states are Utah and Colorado, California
isn't the South obesity wise, but it is probably in the middle of for
obesity rates for states.

Two things that would reduce energy output is limiting air
conditioning, and banning south facing bay windows, in new home
construction. In many ways, air condtioning contributes to obesity, even
though it makes places like Florida, Nevada and Arizona semi sane in the
summer, ditto with the San Joaquin Valley in California.

For the Illegal Aliens, I agree, a third of Illegal Aliens in the US are
Canadians, and they should be banished along with their cultural cuisine of
beaver tails, good beer and poutine... As usual it is Canada's fault.

If you really want to screw up the economy, expel the 15-25 million
undocumented workers in this country.

Or, much easier, prosecute all employers of illegals. They are, after all, the
real problem. As long as they can save a few bucks by hiring illegals without
risk, they will continue to.

Holy ****, Teddy, are you really serious? Hard to tell at times.


I am kidding, because it would be impossible to do. However there is a
link between obesity rates and air conditioning, because one's body doesn't
have to work as hard in a nice air conditioned house or office. Sweating
burns calories.. The states that have the biggest obesity rates are also
the states with the fewest people who exercise, like Mississippi, Kentucky,
Louisiana, etc.

My other theory is to ban cars and parking lots at Costco and Walmarts,
and only have bike racks, which will curtail shoppers' behavior in what
they buy at these stores. One shops differently while using a bike a main
transport than a car/truck.

That would coincide with a reduction in freebies for those living off the taxpayer. Making those people fill those jobs. If not they would help fulfill that obesity plan of yours.

Why are those that beg on the corner so fat?

Both. NOT that without expelling illegals.

Did you know that there already is a "path to citizenship"? We've done it. It cost about $2500 to do on your own for fees and such. Lawyers fees would be extra but it wasn't that difficult, just read and follow the rules. There was an English test, health screenings, family scrutinizing. But we got it done. And if you are not white you can apparently skip those things, and I think it's free.

LOL! Bicycles at Costco???? I couldn't get home with a box of TP.
