The New York Times reports this morning that: "...the House easily approved legislation on Wednesday to bar people from suing restaurants on the ground that their food makes customers fat."
This of course comes just days after the report that obesity now threatens to overtake smoking as America's number one preventable killer.
The fact that such a protective measure had to be passed makes me once again ask: Whatever happened to personal responsibility? If you overeat, you may gain weight and it's no one's fault but your own.
When will we stop passing the buck and start accepting responsibility for our actions?
