The Centers For Substitute Mommying (Formerly The Centers For Disease Control)
Walter Olson blogs at Cato that the CDC have gone off-mission, shifting focus in recent years "to supposed public health menaces like beltless driving, gun ownership, social drinking, and suburban land use patterns."

The United Nations-run WHO is not far behind:

The ideology behind this is driven by ideas fashionable in the West, particularly that of rolling out the "tobacco control" model to other consumer goods like food and alcohol. This summer in Nature, for example, much-quoted Georgetown law prof Lawrence Gostin outlined such an agenda under the headline "Healthy Living Needs Global Governance." According to the abstract of his article, "researchers have identified a suite of cost-effective NCD [non-communicable disease] prevention measures" and now it is time for international regulatory bodies to step forward to impose them.

These measures include nannying moves like restricting alcohol and tobacco marketing and altering the environment to promote physical activity.

I altered my own environment to promote physical activity -- by getting a used exercise machine on eBay some years back and by getting weights -- and I alter it with some frequency by opening the door, walking out it, and going for a long walk with Aida.

Does government really need to be involved in this? Or is it just a jobs program for bureaucrats?
