Give them free liposuction and the resulting biofuel could end our

It does here in America. Congress voted AGAINST suing the junk food
industry for getting children addicted.

You are either on the side of the predator or the prey.

What is this obsession that Americans have with either being for or
against? The world is a complex place and in science there are no
absolutes, (other than theoretical like absolute zero) so in life which
is even more disorganised, there are no absolutes, only differing shades
of grey. Settle down, stop looking for someone to fight with.

It's amusing to watch apes in bars getting into loud arguments or even fist
fights because they disagree about sports teams. "For or against" has no
limits.
