America's obesity epidemic is so deeply rooted that it will take dramatic and systemic measures - from overhauling farm policies and zoning laws to, possibly, introducing a soda tax - to fix it, the influential Institute of Medicine said today.
The Torah predicts, They got fat and they kicked – an allusion to arrogance; in America, the fattest country in the world, arrogance is the reflection of monetary policy that encourages growth at any cost – including the health and welfare of the people. Sugar is the culprit.
Decades ago, studies showed that children will naturally chose food that is good for them until sugar is introduced; when sugar became too expensive, government subsides made high-fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated vegetable oils and other obesity-promoting foods, very cheap.
The government is poisoning the people to promote business that pays taxes that will support medical and insurance companies – people have been reduced to a commodity. Business and government now fight over who is too fat – tax the rich or trim the size of government.
If fruits and vegetables were subsided instead of corn and cotton the populous would be healthy and fat people would be an anomaly, as it should be. The Cabala notes, Fat comes from Tianug/Pleasure – many holy people are fat because they have great pleasure in the Creator.
