[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised this isn't more of an issue with liberals. Just imagine how much less food we'd need to produce if Americans ate less/ate normal portions. Less greenhouse gases, less carbon, less trucking food around.[/quote] It is, which is why we support socialized medicine. [/quote] I think conservatives/libertarians are against socialized medicine for just this reason. People are eating junk and don't care at all about their health, why should others have to pay for it? Medicine would cost a lot less and would be more supported if people were generally healthier.[/quote] Preventative medicine would go a long way. I know conservatives/libertarians think every issue someone encounters in life is because of their own moral failing, but that just isn’t so. [/quote] I agree that this doesn't apply to everyone who is overweight, but there has to be a systemic issue at play here given how much the nation as a whole is increasing in BMI, moreso than other developed countries (who also have this issue, but not nearly the rate the US does).[/quote]
