It's incredible when you put it that way. Stated another way, at least in some parts of the world, our quality of life has gotten so high that we can now afford to lower it on purpose.
- bedhead 6y agoI was about to say in my post, "Our standard of living has become so high..." We have so many resources that for the first time in human history, this is actually a viable option for people. It's wild to think about. I wish you could travel back in time and explain this to someone a century ago, their brains could short circuit. Obesity is a symptom.
