I witnessed many of these folks spending US gov't money on very poor food
choices. Couple that with the fact that most of these folks get
absolutely
zero exercise and it doesn't take a superb imagination to understand why
many look the way they do.



America is the only country in the world with fat poor people.

Cheapest "dinner out" is Micky D's. I had a really poor student with a
heart condition caused by obesity (in the 8th grade).
