Or should we use tax dollars to pay for every kid in america to play little league baseball?
I don't like that kids have to pay - but our country has enough debt, don't we?

Forcing kids to play sports is an excellent way to make sports as uncool as learning is.

I just meant - should parents have to buy uniforms and pay registration fees?
or should Americans be taxed to pay for it?
I think if you want to play - you should have to pay. We cannot afford it, and frankly, it's just not fair to make taxpayers foot the bill so little johnny can play little league.

When I paid little league, we had to pay a yearly league fee. And we had to pay to rent our equipment for the season which was a fee, and we got out and fund raised if we wanted new uniforms. Government had no part of anything.

Fundraising is actually pretty easy - just go door to door. We did it all the time for high school wrestling.

You can't go door to door now..too many weirdos out there who could grab your child. I think that with obesity on the rise, it wouldn't be a bad idea for sports to be free. It might encourage parents to put their children into more sports and also with lower income families who can't afford to pay for their child to do a sport this would mean that the child doesn't miss out.

If you honestly think that picking up a sport is enough to reduce obesity then you're delusional. Your amount of bodyfat is 90% diet.

If you think sports has no impact on obesity you are delutional.
The benefits of sports outweighs the benefits of a good diet

No I don't, a shitty diet is a shitty diet. Football players are a prime example, fuckers are dropping dead at 50.

Indeed but the benefits of regular exercise outweighs those obtained by a healthy diet. Check the web its science not an opinion.
Obviously if you do both you are even better of.

When I was a kid we had the food pyramid, how to eat and be healthy. If you looked at in now, you would say its a death chart, on how to have a heart attack. So fact is subjective when it comes to the medical field..........
