60. Wow
You know, I had some issues with my weight in the past, and I've still got a few extra vanity pounds... this is the last thing that is going to encourage anyone to lose weight. The whole myth that poor people shouldn't be fat is absurd. Of course they should, they can't afford the more expensive, healthier foods. Some of those people who are poor, also work two or three jobs and barely have time to eat at all. Burger King, Wendy's, dollar menu = fast, easy, cheap, and back to work. Maybe someone ought to eat the idiots that proposed this BS.

I'm no fan of fast food restaraunts and such, but this is insane. The mere fact that anyone at all could take this seriously is just... scary. Damn.
