re: More Fatties Than Ever Before in the United States of Inevitable Diabetes

Standard of living is just as high in European countries that aren't fat like America.
I've lived in Europe, most of Europe is impoverished, especially when compared to our standard of living

37% of Spain is unemployed...ever make your way past Germany? Europe is comprised of many different nations at many different levels of wealth and prosperity.

so not being fat means what? That's my point why anecdotal nonsense isn't going to convince anyone of anything. You realize Europe has quite a few countries many would consider 3rd world right? also, not fat like the United States

Somalia
Uganda
North Korea
China
India

we can go on all day. We are fatter no doubt, part of that is prosperity. If you're skinny because you're starving and malnourished then congrats on your awesome BMI

This was all unnecessary. You didn't read what I wrote. I said:

I didn't say all European countries. Yikes man.


And I've lived in Austria, been to Germany, Croatia, Hungary, Czech Republic, Greece, Russia, etc. I've also been to most of the more western countries including the unemployed masses in Spain.

That's a shitty excuse. This country has had prosperity for generations and didn't have this obesity problem. We just had a big recession and the obesity went up, not down.
