No. How can you think I said that? I went out of my way to reject that idea explicitly. I was afraid that if I didn't, someone would hear me saying "we should focus on the problem of obesity, which is real, instead of hunger, which is not" and accuse me of being a heartless bastard intent on screwing the poor. Here's what I said: I'm not claiming that the US doesn't have poverty-related social problems. In fact, one of those problems is obesity, as numerous independent studies have confirmed. There's plenty of room to discuss what should be done about obesity among the poor. But they aren't getting fat because they don't have enough to eat. I'm really at my wits' end here. Can you tell me what kabuki I have to perform in order to be perceived as someone interested in living in a better society than the one we have now?
