Government subsidizes the corn growers. Boom! High fructose corn syrup in everything because it’s so cheap.
Government FDA puts out guidelines for diet that are High Carb, low fat (the same diet given to cattle before slaughter to fatten them up) Boom! Everyone gets fat.
Government listens to lobbyists from Weight Watchers, Slim Fast and others in the weight loss industry. Boom! Herbs that speed up the metabolism are taken off the market.
Government refuses to enact tort reform so doctors are scared to death to prescribe anything proven to help people lose weight because they might get sued out of existence. Boom! People become grossly obese and are turning to surgery to help.
So the government has to fix the problem they created. Nice.
You nailed it...
SOP for the government beast system. It's not the healthy who clamour for Obamacare, but the sick.
Look how government has poisoned the minds of generations of school children. The assault on critical thinking skills has worked its magic... many perceive congresscritters and presidents as messiahs.
With a populace eagerly running to catch the gravy train, knowing no sense of alarm over big government, government is going full-force to poison and cripple physical bodies. That's what happens when people allow the beast system to feed the children and play sugardaddy.
If the "nice man" offering candy or asking for help in looking for his lost puppy is a classic stranger danger run-the-other-way-stat example, how much moreso the kindly but malevolent strangers in government.
