Obesity: A Republican problem?

[opebo]

There's a correlation between being poor (and, by extension, between living in a poor state) and being obese, and a correlation between being a not-as-poor person in a poor state and being a Republican.

Conclusion: If you have money, then living anywhere in the proximity of fat people will make you more likely to vote Republican.

Similar to the effect blacks have on whites.

Could be, could be. I've always, personally, felt that there could be a correlation between eating unhealthy food and obesity.

No, not so much.  It is about quantity of food more than quality.  That, and degree of sedentaryness.

How about an effective system put into place by the ultra wealthy elites that encourages people to eat low price unhealthy foods that have addictive qualities to them?  And yes I'm including those elites that pay lip service to "supporting the poor and middle class" while also supporting policies that have destroyed them while also promoting policies that support the ultra-conglomerates.

You think there is a grand conspiracy of the ultra wealthy elites with the goal of making poor people fat?

The fat is a side effect of what they're conspiring to do to their slaves, dead.
