"Do you know how bizarre it is for a person to support legalization of drugs and at the same time support the criminalization of food?"

Well, consider Dave. I KNOW smoking weed isn't as harmful as smoking tobacco, but which one is legal? I know being a fat person is less healthy than being a normal weight person.

What's "bizarre" is the illogical support we have built into our system for unhealthy behaviors, largely because big corporations promote them. I'm not for making these things illegal. I'm for making them expensive and poor economic choices. In addition, our entertainment media should make it a priority to make them "uncool". Product placement for healthy behaviors.

Are you a big fat guy Dave? Be honest now..
