Review of How Healthy is Your Lifestyle?

Good show. If this piece is typical, you should run it every week.
But what kind of a chance does healthy living stand against ubiquitous deep-pockets advertising? In the upcoming Maine election we will vote on an item that is now promoted by signs on every corner.
All it says is: "Fed up with taxes?"
Tonight I read that Pepsie and Coke have over a million dollars invested in those signs and the outcome of that item on the ballot --- and that The Maine Medical Association has put up $40,000 to oppose it.
So --- you can help usher in a healthier America. Run this show. Promote health. --- And take your chances with your fast food restaurant friends during pledge week.
