Seriously, there is so much dumb in this thread, I can't even address it all.
But I'll try.
WTF are you talking about? The states decide what?? This is not a requirement. The government is not requiring any school to do it, let alone your child participate it should your child's school choose to do this. We have gone into looney-bin territory with this thing.
This entails some commercials and endorsements. This is not a multi-billion dollar waste of money. It's actually productive to promote childhood fitness, which is a major problem in our country right now, and it costs next to zero money. You literally have to be an insane person to make the argument that this is government intruding on our everyday life.
Damn sure is and you are a part of it.
I thought you were a Libertarian, but I must be wrong. I know it's not a mandate, I know they aren't requiring me to participate, but, FEDERAL FUCKING DOLLARS HAVE BEEN SPENT ON THIS GODDAMN SHIT!!!! I don't care if it's one penny or eleventy billion dollars. It's too goddamn much! This is as stupid as Obama telling me how to cover my mouth when I cough and how to sneeze into a tissue during the swine flu scare. It's as dumb as the Australian gov't putting out that "dumb ways to die" video on how to be safe around trains (I found that hilarious, but still).
Our federal gov't doesn't need to be involved in promoting jack dick on how to live our lives. I can decide the health and saftey of my kids by telling them to put the fucking controller down and go play some ball so they aren't disgusting fat bodies and to look both ways before crossing the street. The federal gov't doesn't have the right nor the responsibility to spend money on these dumbass issues. If the state of Alabama, Georgia, Alaska, North Dakota want to spend "state tax dollars" on this kind of bullshit, then fine, let their legislators vote on it, I can gladly vote mine out of office. That is what I mean by letting the states decide. No where in our Constitution (that has been used by our politicians to wipe their asses with since the 1920's) does it specifically state that the federal government get involved with our personal lives and how we raise our families. One penny is too much to spend on this shit, along with the other examples in my other post, especially when we are fucking bankrupt. It's dumb, simple as that and it's dumb that our federal gov't spent one fucking cent on it. I am not up in arms as some are about this, I know that we have bigger fish to fry, but this is a prime example of our gov't spending money they don't need to.
Also, for the lulz and
