As one would suspect you didn't get the point of the post. Of course companies should have standards that the people they employ must meet. However the point of the post was, now that the government in running our healthcare system one can reasonably expect regulations requiring you to do what the government things you to should eat etc., because they are already telling others what they can or can not sell to their customers. If you doubt that will happen to our health care, just look the control it currently has over the types of vehicles automobile manufactures are currently allowed to sell. When the 35 MPH CAFE becomes fully implemented we will be forced to buy more of the less safe small on midget cars that buyers are refusing to buy today. That will result in the number of injuries and deaths going back up. It will also cause the price of fuel going up as well, oil companies are not going to loose money because we may us less fuel in our vehicles. Check the history of the price of fuel each time the CAFE was raise if you don't understand.
