Where do you draw the line?
Where is the line that separates individual responsibility and culture from the responsibilities of governments? I don't know. It's very fuzzy. There's a mountain of good data, advice, and substitutes that can let someone eat healthy and avoid obesity. The resources and help are out there - yet obesity happens regardless. Can it really be said to be the fault of the whole?
Just because the problem is widespread doesn't mean it's not individual responsibility.
As for phones, that's more complicated. There's less clear-cut about how best to tackle those problems compared to obesity.
- ofcourseyoudo 3y agoWho cares where you draw the line. Do you care about outcomes? Blaming obesity on individual responsibility has not worked to lower occurrence and morbidity. If this is an area you're actually working on, you can ride a high horse about how it's individual responsibility, but you'll have to work on systems if you want the numbers to come down. If you're a disinterested party that just wants to judge people, think whatever you want.
