	Samuel Holdheim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Samuel Holdheim was a German rabbi and author; leader of the extreme wing of the early Reform Judaism movement.
		While still a young man it became his ambition to occupy a rabbinical position in a larger German town; for he desired to show the older rabbis that secular and philosophical scholarship could well be harmonized with rabbinical erudition.
		The importance of this book is attested by the stir it created among German Jewish communities, many members of which found in its attitude the solution of the problem how loyalty to Judaism could be combined with unqualified allegiance to their German nationality.

		Hirsch is a small, trim man with a disconcerting habit of reading, writing and staring at his desk while speaking — looking anywhere, basically, but at a reporter.
		Hirsch acknowledged that he was motivated by "an element of compensation," but insisted that the suit was "not an attempt to fleece McDonald's or the fast food industry.
		Hirsch said he was "famous for being an agitator in the riots" and it's a memory he seems to regard fondly.

		Samuel J. Tilden spotted the movement before it gained prominence, and he was able to claim credit for being the major player in the movement.
		Samuel J. Tilden's modern image is overwhelmingly positive: the man who, it is thought, single-handedly broke up the Tweed Ring; the only man to have been elected President but denied the office; a major benefactor of one of the largest public research libraries in the world.
		Hirsch argues that Tilden had little desire to risk his career for reform unless he could be sure that no negative consquences would come to him.

		The suit brought by lawyer Samuel Hirsch was heard Wednesday in a Manhattan federal court — the first time such a case has appeared before a US judge.
		Hirsch has already made it clear that if the case goes to trial, he would seek to turn it into a class action on behalf of all New York children under the age of 18 who claim health problems from eating at McDonald's.
		Responding to Hirsch's suit, McDonald's issued a statement arguing that obesity was a function of several factors including a sedentary lifestyle, a lack of moderation in personal eating habits, and the decline of physical education programs in US schools.

	WorldNetDaily: Beware of high-fat litigation
		Barber's lawyer, Samuel Hirsch, also, I assume, in complete seriousness, reportedly said the burgers create a de facto addiction, or a "craving," especially in kids (ah, yes, we must always mention the children) and the poor.
		Hirsch says, "he hopes the lawsuit will force the fast-food industry to offer a greater variety to consumers, including vegetarian meals, smaller sizes and meals with fewer grams of fat."
		Hirsch and his litigants, in the mold of a Russian Commissar, would tell McDonald's that they have no business listening to their customers and must offer these products even if no one buys them.

		Hirsch claimed that the teenagers had become obese from consumption of McDonald’s sandwiches, fries, pies and shakes.
		Hirsch claimed the teens were led improperly to believe McDonald’s food was healthy (yes, feel free to pause and laugh at that one) by a long-term and deceptive advertising campaign (I always suspected Ronald McDonald was a shady character) that included TV ads encouraging customers to eat the company’s food daily.
		Hirsch could not prove McDonald’s withheld nutritional information to the degree that his plaintiffs were subsequently disadvantaged by that implied lack of knowledge.

		Hirsch and client claim that the fast-food industry fails to note in its packaging and advertising the high fat content of some of their foods.
		Which is tantamount to standing up and saying, "I am a really stupid person who has no clue about the world in which I live." It is simply not possible to live in this country and not know that fast-food restaurants serve fattening foods.
