>Hypothesis: We don't much care about the good of society.
"We" is a very big blanket term. Quite a few of us care about preventable deaths from bad health choices.
However, quite a few people on this Earth exist that don't care very much about the good of society.
These people run the corporations that are VERY GOOD at selling things that kill us, namely junk foods, alcohol and tobacco.

Maybe we could "solve" obesity by strictly rationing every person's daily food intake and not allowing them to eat anything else besides what they've been provisioned. Who wants to live in that world?
- quuquuquu 9y agoDefinitely not I, it's true :) The nihilistic reality is that none of this matters, everyone will do what they want, people will profit, others will die. All I ever try to do is provide true information- the user will need to draw their own plan of action from it :)
