Life is horribly, horribly unfair

However, that's not my point. You have the same tunnel vision Jay has. All
I'm saying is that it's fallacious to think that the obesity of poor people
in any way indicates an improvement in their nutrition. I would bet that
more people die of obesity-related illness today than died of starvation in
1903 (per capita, of course).

And I wouldn't bet that, so now we're even, since neither of us has
data.

Our fundamental disagreement seems to be that I believe things have
gotten significantly better for pretty much everyone (though not by
the same amounts, but still better for all), and you seem to believe
that things haven't. Your privilege, of course.

And now that the thread has completely departed from the realms of
aviation...
