you know you dont have to make your posts all one sentence like youre doing its very confusing and it makes it hard for everyone to read you know the point of posting is so people will read what you have to say but nobody can read it clearly when it makes no sense like youre doing and therefore nobody will listen to you get the point?

That photo is racist and a poor representation of America. It's like thinking that since Cuba's a dictatorship, everyone in Cuba is a dictator.

Only about 1% of the American population are THAT fat. And by racist, I meant "against America".

Did you get hit with the stupid stick a lot when you were little?

Nope, a stupid branch. THUNK!

It is true that the U.S. has one of the largest obesity rates in the world, but I think that isn't really America's fault. America has a pretty big economy, despite their deficit, and many companies, including those who sell food, go there. Look at what happens when McDonalds goes completely international:

It's a simple concept to do:

1. Open up a non-drive-thru McDonalds/any other fast food restaurant.

2. Make the entrances narrower. Those that want to eat there will have to lose weight to eat there.

I may be skinny now, but once I reach adulthood, I will lose my fast metabolism and start to gain weight. While this may be good at first, the actions will not stop and I will continue, until I get obese, unless I actually do something about it. But sadly, I may be like the others and not try to.

McDonalds hits McDonalds! Now picture a very fat building with a sing of McDonalds.

americans are fat because they eat at mcdonalds so its their fault

I think he meant America's fault. Anyway, yeah it's bad, but the people who are obese need to deal with their weight. Did you know more than 20 lbs of their weight is rotting food stuck in their intestines because they digest too slowly? Yeah. Another reason to stay fit. And so what? We have Mc'Donalds... that isn't the problem, the obvious not exercising laziness is the problem.

I like the pic Canuck

Well, Americans choose the easy option of fatty foods instead of the longer but more healtier options.

its because in the ressesion mcdonals is cheap and fatty and everyone goes there, plus they make a hell of a burger :P im only 13 though so i wouldnt know addicting to food is.... my aunt has a disease that wont let her get skinny unless she doenst eat like anything but veggies. wow i feel bad for her. she wont even eat a type of grain
