Poverty & Obesity

I looked across the dinner table and told Heather, "Obesity trends follow closely with diabetes, heart disease, and poverty."

Of course I quickly followed it up with, "They should allow poor people to use food stamps on cigarettes, they don't need to be buying all that extra food."

Heather said she worries about me, I am just saying that is how my engineering mind works. I think of solutions.

Also, the government isn't going to allow cigarette companies to sell lights or ultra lights, they think that will help lung cancer rates. They think people actually believe that smoking lights is healthier. If people believe that kind of stuff, then maybe, just maybe they deserve what they get.

Yes, Tanya, I am back, but today I am hateful, so the world gets to hear about it.
