When it comes to the government controlling what people eat is say no. But if you go to the government for the handout/food stamps then I feel the government should have some control. If you gave your child an allowance and they just spent it all on candy and started putting on a lot of weight would you not step in and control how they spend the allowance?
You want complete freedom get out and earn it, you want help from the government then you are beholden to the government.
A human can go 3 weeks without food before death occurs.

Medical conditions could be the cause of weight Gain, Like my cousin She is a Big Girl and eats nothing due to her thyroid problem..
On another note it kills me to go to the store to spend 60 dollars get #^&#^&#^&#^&,,Then the lady in front of me in her pajamas who just rolls out of bed at 3 to pick her kids up from school(free daycare for her) with an over flowing carriage of food just swipes her food stamp card and on her way she goes with her steaks and lobster... Me Im getting frozen pizza and lunch meat....GRRRRR
