Thread Name: Why are Americans so fat?
Subject: RE: Why are Americans so fat?
Plenty more to worry about now, but the fat issue is going to have to be paid for at some time. Being fat isn't healthy, and a nation of lard-arses (whether it's the USA, UK or Australia) is going to find that it hasn't got the money for schools and other nice things because its health bills are bloody huge.
Sure, plenty of people are happy being fat and flabby, but they're still damaging themselves. "Fat Acceptance" is another term for pig-headed selfishness. Don't do this denial crap - If you're fat it means you eat too much of the wrong stuff and don't take enough exercise. Full stop.
And if you don't agree, chase me!
