  4.  @austinhernandez2716  What I mean is 3/5ths of the American population are overweight or obese. This undoubtedly has effects on the demand of healthcare, which raises the cost.

  13.  @teosamarzija  I was referring to obesity. Guess what is the leading preventable cause of cancer behind cigarettes? Obesity. Guess what is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes? Obesity, no matter which way you look at it. Guess what is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease? Obesity. Guess what is a leading cause of high blood pressure? Obesity. Guess what is a risk factor for strokes? Obesity. Those are just a few results of obesity. And as a non-American I can tell you that the average perception of Americans around the world is not super athletic men who are built like brick walls.
