How the Obesity-Industrial Complex Keeps Americans Sick, Fat, and Sad

  The United States spends more money   per capita   on healthcare than any other country on Earth –   almost twice as much as Germany and triple Japan . To emphasize, this is the average spending on an individual level, so it’s triple the spending of Japan per person. Source:  Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker And what do Americans get for all that spending? The US is  the fattest  and the sickest in terms of chronic disease rates in the world. Per  Statista , “the CDC estimates that six in ten adults in the United States currently live with a chronic disease such as cancer, heart disease, or diabetes.” You probably know someone personally – in all likelihood, multiple people – who suffers from a chronic health condition.

Including sick from the sickness supposedly “vaccinated” against. It seems a little  . . . stupid, does it not? I’ll speak now of my own “stupidity” and “selfishness.” I have never smoked a cigarette in my life. I drink occasionally and moderately. I eat almost no processed food – the occasional indulgence excepted – and I make the effort to hit the gym every other day and the trail (to run) on the days I don’t hit the gym. For these very selfish – but far from stupid – reasons, I am . . . healthy . I can still wear the size 32 waist pants I wore in high school more
