They can't demand better food habits, but they can certainly promote healthier lifestyles.

They also may not treat your parents if they're over a certain age and don't meet Dictator Obama's standards for a "quality of life."

Every other developed nation has some kind of universal health care. Do ANY of them ban fast foods? No. Some pass laws to make healthy foods more attractive, to break the grip that fast-food has in the US. For instance mandating certain benefits for fast-food workers, or raising the minimum wage, or subsidizing farmers. None of them ban unhealthy foods, or refuse help to fat people.

6 :
They will need to in order to avoid bankrupting the country with obesity-related illnesses.
7 :
Fast food, soft drinks, junk food will all be taxed. And I would about bet salt, coffee, tea and alcohol would also be taxed along with anything else they think is "bad" for you.
