Obesity isn’t reason, it’s a result from other problems like loneliness, anxiety or not very stable life circumstances. Fighting these will reduce obesity. No proof of that, just my personal theory. Also in local supermarket I could call minority of the products healthy. 600 grams of very unhealthy cookies for 0,99€ should have sugar tax of another 2€ on it.
- tomashubelbauer 7y agoI don't know about this. I don't think it is that uncommon to meet fat, but also happy and well off people. Especially in office jobs, where you have to actively fight free company snacks, sugar water and lack of personal time for exercise. I do agree on your supermarket point though. I wouldn't go as far as to punish eating bad, people should be able to do it if they want to, but when you can split your average supermarket offering into 10 % actual food and 90 % candy cosplaying as food, something's off IMO.
- humanrebar 7y agoI think the point was that obesity is a symptom, not a cause. And then there's the implication that "try harder to be thin" isn't an effective remedy, at least not so far.
