Japanese Govt. *FORCES* Weight Loss?

Take a look at this video over on CNN.com a friend emailed me. It might sound crazy, and I'm not sure we could ever have such a thing happen in the States (it would infringe on too many people's "rights" to be lard-asses and would make people "feel bad" for being fattys), but I can't say it might not be a bad a idea.

I mean, imagine a company (b/c it's scared of govt. fines) enforces guidelines on how big your waist can be, offers exercise breaks at work 2x/day, and tells its employees to use the stairs instead of the elevator?

Let me know what you think.
