Obesity is a “disease” of affluence.In my several visits to Third World countries I can't recall having seen a fat person.

In an Obamacare world, the HHS Secretary would be able to require everyone perform calisthenics each morning like in Communist China...

lol...Bloomberg and Obama believe fat people should pay their fair share. But they would only tax (I mean penalize) people over 200 lbs.

“...Obesity is a disease of affluence...”
Yet in Alabama I would say that the wealthy are typically thin or at least less-than-obese while the poorest 15 percent are often very fat.

And homosexual sodomy is more dangerous than smoking or being fat.

This should be very good news to those who believe Earth’s salvation depends on getting rid of millions of people. But they’ll probably be the first to favor the forced exercises some have mentioned.

You definitely see a lot more chubs in WM or Dollar General than you do in Nordstrom.
I’m thinking it’s a synergistic combination of food stamps and 60 inch televisions.

Obesity is a disease of affluence.But in this country, a visit to Walmart shows the opposite to be true.

What is needed is a camp where we can concentrate obese or even slightly overweight people. A few days there and they will be slim and trim

But, since homosexuality can be used in the REAL battle, that of the world vs God’s people,
they’ll get a pass.

Good idea, Comrad!
Perhaps they can be re-educated there and work for the State to compensate for the cost of their education.
