More than 40 million Americans (12%) are on Food stamps. Nearly one in five of us are unemployed of underemployed. Folks go to Wal-Mart at 11PM waiting for their government checks to clear at midnight so they can buy baby formula, milk and other necessities. Three out of every five Americans are overweight. One in five are obese.

We are the first generation since the history of mankind to have "poor fat people."

And more government programs (like Muchelle Obama's "Let's Move!") that encourage people to eat more apples won't make them skinny either.
