160. Would you have to show proof of a metabolic disorder?
This is crazy.

This guy thinks that everybody that is fat eats way too much. He isn't a doctor and knows nothing about medicine and especially endocrinology.

There are millions of Americans with low thyroid disease. And most of them are undiagnosed and untreated. People with dead thyroids can die after a few years if they don't get their thyroid extract. And the drug companies are trying to stop the doctors from prescribiing the natural, cheap stuff that Armour sells -- it's a byproduct from the slaughterhouse made from dried animal glands -- but it's FAR more biologically effective than the expensive, synthetic stuff.

Even if you are being treated and take your thyroid pill everyday, you can exercise your butt off, eat right and still be obese.

And that's just one of many metabolic problems people have.

AGGGHHH!! These idiots wouldn't know how to draft a law if they were gonna be shot! They think they can pass a law to solve every single problem out there.
