U.S. — Citizens in the most obese, unhealthy country on the face of the planet have expressed concern that new Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. might try to do a few things differently.
With seventy-five percent of the adult population now overweight or obese, government officials expressed deep reservations about doing anything differently whatsoever. Thousands of employees within Health and Human Services have even threatened to quit if the new Secretary tries to get the country to change direction in some way.
"RFK Jr. is a nut and his ideas are crazy," said FDA employee Sharon Wilmington, as she slapped a "Heart Healthy" sticker on a box of Froot Loops. "We obviously have this thing under control."
According to sources, Kennedy Jr. has proposed extreme, outlandish reforms such as reducing processed sugars in kids' foods and occasionally exercising. "It's very extreme," said current HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra. "The man has obviously gone off the deep end. We must protect the beautiful, rotund children of today from this psychopath."
At publishing time, climate experts had begun to consider that the sea levels were rising because so many fat Americans were making the land sink.

Big Pharma has conditioned the sheeple to resist fewer pills.
Yeah, they got me with this article. I thought it was real.
I hope RFK jr. can save us from tipping over the continent because all the fatties.
Makes as much sense as any other explanation for alleged rising sea levels as I've heard.
Ironically, I think it is.
And the leftists are going to have an awfully hard time criticizing the changes RFK Jr is advocating for.
And if they do, the perfect response is to ask *What? You object to eating better and becoming healthier?*
The Last Health Secretary is mentally ill, pumped full of synthetic estrogen and other drugs to make believe he is a woman. I mean, how low can you go? Let the employees threaten to quit. They can go to work for the unemployed crossdresser.
I think obesity has gone up in my lifetime, maybe even in the last ten years.
I suppose activity and diet are the main culprits.
My grandparents had a ranch, which was operated by my three uncles. One had been in the marines and still did one-armed push-ups in the morning. One was fit but had a phobia about work. We won’t go there. The third had a childhood illness that left him with a shrunken lung. He’s the kind of guy that people call “wiry,” small but surprisingly strong.
I remember a live-in ranch hand. He was slim. After eating a stack of pancakes that was at least 6” high, he was offered a second stack, which he gladly accepted.
Back then hay bales were small enough that you could throw them. Throwing hay bales, the sweat just rolls off.
Having grown up on a ranch, I bucked a lot of hay.
this is explained in detail in a book “The Obesity Code”
“I suppose activity and diet are the main culprits.”
I suspect pills are culprits too.
As for soda, the carbonation may be far worse than the sugar as carbonation breaks down food fast.
My FIL hurt himself years ago handling hay bales. He told the doctor, “That’s what I get for doing women’s work!”
Thanks, I’ll look into it.
I forgot to mention the occasional venison steak. Fresh, as in shot that day.
Although this was from before my time, there is a real basis for the expression “running around like a chicken with its head chopped off.” Sounds like a prior generation had really fresh meat.
“I suspect pills are culprits too.”
Watching T.V. I’m amazed by how many ads I see for medical problems and drugs (oral or injection). I’m not sure what to think of a particular problem and a particular shot.
What happens when you take multiple medications? I’m pretty confident that the medical community cannot keep up with the possible interactions.
Makes for a good headline but this isn’t really accurate. The United States isn’t even in the top 10 fattest countries. It’s mostly Pacific Islanders and some Middle East countries in the top 10.
If suddenly those ads went away, what would happen to the bottom lines of those TV companies? Perhaps the ads are the only thing keeping the legacy corporate media afloat.
We certainly are the fattest industrial country.
LOL! Great article and they speak the truth - we are a nation that has overweight and in some cases obese people.
