"Ex-military leaders: Young adults 'too fat..." - BAD - "to fight'" - GOOD.

So if the youth are too fat, that's a good thing... that means we can strap a rucksack and some 782 gear on those fat-ass politicians who are more than eager and happy to send other people's children off to war to kill and die without any cost to themselves. Make the politicians fight the wars. They're the jackasses who vote for them.

[Following this recommended policy, I surmise a rapid and completely expected outbreak of peace worldwide.]

Ex-military leaders: Young adults 'too fat to fight' - CNN.com:

"More than a quarter of young adults are unable to meet physical requirements to join the military, creating a potential threat to national security, a group of retired armed forces leaders said Tuesday.

'It's not drug abuse, it's not asthma, it's not flat feet -- by far the leading medical reason is being overweight or obese,' said retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Gen. Norman Seip at a news conference."
