Obesity is a real problem. I don't know how to fix it, except individually.
Been thinking about having a REAL definition of junk food, and taxing that at 100%. I love veggies and fruit, but a burger is can be cheap, and people work so much, home cooking is a challenge (thus the rise of Freshly and the like).

Is there a correlation in the number/percentage of working/single mothers to obesity?

Have you ever seen the lines and parking lots at drive throughs/fast food food places at dinner time?
First they came for the sodas. It's why fat people are fat, it must be taxed! Soda begged the snake cake for help, but the snack said "I am not a soda, therefore I do not care."
Next they came for the snack cake. It's why fat people are fat, it must be taxed! Snack cake begged Salty Snack for help but Salty Snack said "I am not a snack cake, therefore I do not care."
Then they came for the Meat. Meat asked the Vegetable king to help but the Vegetable king said "I am not meat, I am a plant, therefore I do not care."
Next they came the Plants. They declared, fruit still has sugar and it's too confusing to tax some food and not other foods. So, like the bridge they promised would one day be free and continued to charge for, politicians voted to charge taxes on all consumable foods.
IT IS WRITTEN! IT MUST BE TAXED!!! Even if you're a skinny bean pole. Pay up muthaphuka.
