The Obesity Crisis; a Threat to Our Nation

“Young people these days cannot pass the physical fitness test to get into the U.S. Military. You can’t sit around drinking Mountain Dew and eating Doritos and expect to be fit enough to serve our country when you turn 18. That’s a big part of it. But it is also about being mentally sharp. When you have a button at your fingertips that can blow up a city, you better have the intellect to make split-second decisions…quite honestly the health of our youth is presenting a serious security threat to our country.”
