Seems like the Japanese government will impose several courses of action to decrease people's weight.
I got a very mixed reaction from this. On the one hand, I think it's funny that the government would go to that sort of length. On the other, I don't think that a government should have that kind of control over someone's personal life. And, on that elusive third arm, that I have tucked away in my shirt, I think that using force makes sense (well, certainly, if it were in regard to the American population).
Makes me wonder about the future of Sumo wrestling, though.
