Open to Debate Press Release

On February 7, Open to Debate will take on one of America’s biggest problems when they host the debate: Obesity Is the Government’s Business. Obesity costs our health care system nearly $150 billion a year and is a major risk factor for expensive, chronic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Should the government intervene, or is this a matter of individual rights and personal responsibility?
