I don't see how this current cultural acceptance and promotion of obesity will be sustainable.  There's got to be a tipping point in the future where accountability and common sense prevail...or we are fucked.  Hopefully there'll be a spate of high profile hamicides.  There's also going to be an epidemic of liver failure in teenagers soon and I hope the media take things seriously, because the current trend in all media regarding obesity is abhorrently irresponsible.
