I guess that would mean poor people have a higher stroke risk than wealthy people. Since most fast food restaurants in middle and lower class neighborhoods.

Yep yep yep, always the victim, NEVER take responsiblity for healthy eating choices, blame the restuarants, a burger and fries here and there won’t kill anyone but a steady diet of that crap will, but, alas, why should people make smart choices when we can just blame someone else for the problem and eventually tax them out of business.

"appear to have a higher risk of stroke" "researchers studying neighborhoods in one Texas county"
"he cautioned that the findings are purely associative"
"I can't tell you that anybody who had a stroke in this study has ever had a burger in their lives"
-------------------------------------------------
This is a "study"?

When I lived in Minneapolis, I treated myself to White Castle’s jalapeno cheeseburgers about once a month and Popeye’s spicy fried chicken every three months or so.
Just because it’s there doesn’t mean you have to eat it everyday. Some people have no common sense.

I’m sure you would be impressed by my thesis that trailer parks cause smoking and bad teeth!

This is a "study"? Yes. Please do not question the methodology or you may get a visit from Al Gore...

For goodness sake...I lived directly across from a Burger King for 4 years. I went there exactly ONE time. I don’t remember in any of those 4 years of being pulled in with a rope, or being forced to go there. I actually went in there ONE time and bought some ice cream because I had strep throat. Good grief!

Yes. I believe the authors are now being considered for high ranking positions within Obama's economic team.

It’s amazing what passes for “science” these days...

Obama will remedy this complaint soon.
No one will be able to afford to eat anything but our devalued dollar bills.

They’re running out of smokers to persecute. Next up : the overweight.
