I have written 0n this many times and I usually go off after some ridiculous millionaire media type gets on her high horse about obesity and what the government should do to control it….I thought I would illustrate how a think tank would approach the subject…….and it does not matter which spectrum you want….they all approach it similarly……..

Well, this sanctimonious person thinks we have an obesity problem….I will agree with her to this point……but her answer is that we Americans must be made to eat healthy and exercise….I will agree that we all need to eat better and exercise….and there is where this woman and I part ways……her answers are that people make bad choices because they are not educated on proper nutrition…..this is where I think that she slides into the elitist bitch category…..seldom do these toads ever talking about the eating disorders that make people shrink away into skin and bones…I guess if one is skinny then it is not a problem…..

This is where I will illustrate how a decision and political position is formed by those think tanks that everyone so enjoys quoting…..

I think it is a bit delusional to think that everybody has the time to exercise, get the kids ready for school, get self ready for work….unfortunately these are excellent ways to get fit….but not everyone makes a million dollars and has any help with the chores mentioned……and not everyone can afford the high perice for healthy foods…especially if the family is large, by large I mean 4 or more persons……

My theory is poverty has more to do with eating and exercising paths……let us look at the 5 most unhealthy states…….

5–Alabama   4–Arkansas  3–Oklahoma  2–Louisiana  1–Mississippi (my state)

Now let us look at the poorest states…in this case the top 5 poorest…….

5–Texas  4–Alabama  3– New Mexico  2–Louisiana  1–Mississippi (my state)

Do you see a trend yet?  3 of the poorest states are also in the unhealthy list…..could poverty have something to do with this?

A Think Tank will take this information and tilt it to show that the sole cause of an unhealthy lifestyle is poverty……the facts are there, sports fans….

And we could go further…..we could check out how religion could figure into this…….these are the 5 most religious states……

5–Tennessee  4–Louisiana  3–South Carolina  2–Alabama  1–Mississippi (my state)

There you have the facts….3 of the least healthy states are also the most religious states…..also 3 of the most religious states are also the poorest………so could we make a inference that religion could lead to an unhealthy lifestyle?

(For all you dim witted trolls out there…….I am NOT saying that religion causes poverty or unhealthy lifestyle….only some self serving douche bag could use these facts to form an untrue premise….that is all)………

My point is…this is how think tanks work….they take some isolated facts and build a narrative………
