Being Overweight in Japan is Illegal

While you do not go to jail for being overweight in Japan, your company many be paying a hefty price for you being considered hefty yourself. When I first heard this of course I was taken aback for a brief moment. Instantly I figured out what this was all about. I am sure many of you were or are screaming inside about your personal rights and liberties to be overweight, obese, or fat. This is not the case with this law when you look a little closer.
