Is it possible that "Trust for America's Health" has a political agenda?

I spend every day helping people lose fat / get fit / etc..., so I am all in favor of public efforts to help people improve their health/fitness.

But I keep getting this funny feeling that these reports about the Obesity Epidemic are designed to scare people.

Fear is a great tool for driving public opinion & gov't policy
