Japan fights fat -- Japan is taking fighting obesity to the extreme
Good or bad idea? Do people have a right to be “overweight,” or is it acceptable for companies to be fined for having employees with waist sizes larger than a predetermined circumference?
People are made up of millions of variables, any one of which could drastically affect a person’s size. Is it really fair to fine someone until they are “thin enough” if their genetic disposition almost mandates a larger-than-average body type? Absolutely not.
I’d love to see Overweight America’s reaction if they ever tried this in the U.S.
