"To curtail Japan's overweight population, the Japanese health ministry recently mandated that all waistlines among its 56 million workers over age 40 be below “regulation size” of 33.5 inches (for men). Any company failing to bring its employees’ weight under control--as well as the weights of their family members--will be fined up to 10% of its earnings by the government."

it's a popular belief that fat people have more health problems and are a greater burden on the commonwealth, though the opposite is actually true since they tend to die younger.

the birth rate in japan isn't high enough to sustain their society, they should institute sex for lunch instead, and perhaps that would curb the weight problem as well.

BLueone, I was talking with my Fam about cultural differences I noticed on my trip. Like smoking. In many places you can only smoke at designated smoking areas on the street. But it isn't due to health reasons like second hand smoke, it is because you might burn someone or you just find it annoying.
In America people will bullshit you about it, say they are worried about the workers in restaurants etc, when in reality they find it annoying or they dont like the smell.
America needs a serious reality check and needs to stop all the bullshit fearmongering to get results.
- "stop all the bullshit fearmongering to get results." My god, what kinda anti-american freak ARE you? :)TheBlueOne
