Saw another story on obese kids today. The percentage was 25% for kids 17 and under, but some people expect that number to keep going up. Still a lot. The worry is early onset of Type 2 Diabetes, kidney damage and the associated medical costs. The Robert Woods Johnson Foundation (the Johnson & Johnson fortune)is going to spend $500 Million dollars on education-the biggest private program of its type ever funded.
