Only the slim will be allowed to dine in public!

I wish I could use my usual "Unbelievable!" marker here, but alas, very little is truly unbelievable anymore when it comes to legislation.

It has actually happened. Lawmakers have proposed legislation that forbids restaurants and food establishments from serving food to anyone who is obese (as defined by the State). Under this bill, food establishments are to be monitored for compliance under the State Department of Health and violators will have their business permits revoked.
