How Politicians Help Make Us Fat

What Really Makes Us Fat - NYTimes.com: "If we think of Dr. Ludwig’s subjects as pre-obese, then the study tells us that the nutrient composition of the diet can trigger the predisposition to get fat, independent of the calories consumed. The fewer carbohydrates we eat, the more easily we remain lean. The more carbohydrates, the more difficult. In other words, carbohydrates are fattening, and obesity is a fat-storage defect. What matters, then, is the quantity and quality of carbohydrates we consume and their effect on insulin.

From this perspective, the trial suggests that among the bad decisions we can make to maintain our weight is exactly what the government and medical organizations like the American Heart Association have been telling us to do: eat low-fat, carbohydrate-rich diets, even if those diets include whole grains and fruits and vegetables."
So basically for the last fifty years, the government has been propagandizing us to do the WRONG THING -- the government sanctioned food pyramid has killed countless Americans.

No doubt things will be transformed into paradise on earth by giving them even more power over healthcare -- which they have already nearly destroyed even before O DuceCare.

The SCOAMF said we're stupid and need to be transformed after all...

And if the SCOAMF actually weren't a nasty jack*ss on purpose, this would all still be a ridiculous joke because:
