Thats a whole lot of assumptions to fit one particular area that disrupts the "free time" idea. Not even close to everyone has kids. Not everyone is broke. Not everyone has a yard to maintain. Not everyone has a dog. Not everyone works 8-5. etc. etc. etc. Yet something like 70% of our people are fat as fuck. Its just not an excuse that holds up over the span of 220 million people.


Those "assumptions" are why the majority of the obese are also in poverty.

Us skinny folks are the ones who can afford the time and resources to eat healthy and exercise. For the poor, it's a choice between either using up more time/resources or doing the healthy thing.

You're answering your own questions here, lol.

Not buying excess food is literally the basis of not being fat. Something poor people should be able to accomplish relatively easy, given the lack of funds.

only if they have flexibility genetics


That's great consistency they got there.

If you're fat, you have bad genetics. It's not your fault.
If you're fat, and you lost weight, you have good genetics. Your effort was irrelevant.
If you're thin, you have good genetics. You can't help but be thin.

Yeah that's the kind of thinking worth attacking. Kicking people while they're down might not do them any good.

I thought you said you were hate free but I'm glad you're trying to protect yourself from Freddie Kruger, he's a totally real guy.

we should do an experiment for science purposes,

let's find a poor obese person on jsp and try to get them on a healthy but affordable diet and see how far we get?

Those excess foods are cheaper than healthier alternatives.

It's cheaper to buy a $5 2,000 calorie burrito at Chipotle than it is to buy $5 in fresh vegetables and proteins.
