>implying the tag-team of the food industry and big pharma will ever allow the cash cow of obesity to be solved

The only way is for individuals to collectively make the choice, the system wants people fat

Pump the fatties full of calories until they die.

>early education on health
>no subsidized sugar

>countries
>as in anything besides the US

Anyway, you can't fix it. It's a byproduct of capitalism. Your ideas of government regulations to fix it just prove it.

>establish a yearly bodyfatcheck
>if your % is growing you have to go in therapy
>everyone who reaches a certain % gets detained in a work camp until he/she is lean again

Ez, decrease taxes on healthy people. You can't tax fatties more without causing an uproar so just increase taxes in general and give fit people tax breaks, especially on Medicare payment.

Anyone with a bf% over 30 gets gunned down in the streets after a year warning

After school programs (sports and gym)

What about not interfering with people's way of life and letting them live as they want to?

Everyone needs to tell others what to do nowadays, as if it was any of their business.

>not telling people what to do

By year 2030, at least half of America will be obese.

It is a national EMERGENCY at that point.

Imagine if half of the USA just started doing deadly amounts of heroin.
>hehe just let em do it bro freedom

except that it is other people's business. diabetes healthcare costs a lot.

Remove Mexicans and black women.

>tax equal to your bf percentage

Monthly checkups, anyone above 30% bf gets executed

Shaming, just like Japan does

Yeah, that's why state paid healthcare is bullshit. People should take the responsibility and willingly pay their health insurance without interference of the state.

We seem to have vastly different opinions so I am not gonna argue. But yeah, the same logic should apply to heroin users.

No free Healthcare for people that neglect their body.

>mandatory physical education and gym time in schools
>tax breaks for the physically fit; proven through exams that can be provided by gen practitioner
>more tax breaks for also having healthy family and children; see above
>public broadcasting of documentaries/infomercials, etc. pertaining to the negative effects of obesity and the positive effects of fitness
>at local level, more community lifting events and sponsoring of physicality to inspire the chilluns
>etc.

This

WHY DOES HE WEAR THE MASK?!

You don't

It makes being fit more exclusive and desirable and fatties pay my bills

t. medfag

Yearly weigh ins to USMC standards

If you fail, you get put on BCP.

If you still fail after a year, execution

this is what japan did, but they did so when they saw an opportunity to halt it with regulation.

Right now what one can still do however is

>sugar tax
and use that tax to fund actual programs about how one must avoid the sugary devil
>make discrimination against fats legal
so that airplane companies, bus companies, insurance companies and more (if not already) have a basis to legally discriminate against fatties
>remove medical wellfare from fatties for clear fat symptoms

>government gyms
actually, why not give them somekind of personal card, or government ID thing which they need to use in those gyms, so that they get tax breaks. Depending literally on how much they exersize and what they do under the watchful eye of government surveillance.

Solve the obesity problem? We should just create a stratification of classes where the fatties are a permanent underclass.

The Fit and the Fat, like the Eloi and the Morlocks from The Time Machine.

sugar tax doesn't work, it just makes people buy the cheap candy instead

A universal minimum requirement for P.E. would be a start. As it is now even obesets can pass if they just ''try their best''.

Ban them from public establishments and public transport, don't give them any welfare etc. Just treat them like second class citizens basically.

Remove soft drinks.
Make fitness test to be eligible for health insurance.
Intense physical education in school.

Why should we when there's a strong correlation between low iq and morbidly obesity? Let them kill themselves.

Stop putting sugar in literally everything more and more each year

it is my business though. as a brit i have a right to be angry and care about peoples health because I, as the taxpayer, pay for it and their poor discipline is them deliberately taking more money from the public healthcare system as a result of their laziness. fuck them

this but it is not a health issue

spotted the deluded libertarian
this is the one. no care fo

smokers have to pay for their lung surgery/treatment, alcoholics pay for liver and brain treatments and fatties have to pay for evurthang

>completely privatize health industry
>deregulate all food services
>let Darwinism take its course and laugh as fatties all kill themselves

The DARE idea would only work if the food that is served in public schools is also drastically improved in terms of nutritional content and cutting off access to garbage food and colas. But of course the schools NEED drink/snack machines for extra fundage, and can't afford to overhaul the lunch program. And so the cycle repeats itself.

School food is usually nutritionally devoid and possibly cancer causing. Not to mention at my school all the sugary flavored milks where free but the water was $1.50 so guess what all the students drank....

-> I've advocated the exact same shit as the guy you are quoting. Forcing tax payers to pay for fat fucks healthcare is just as irrational as forcing fat fucks to lose weight without any apparent reason that would affect you personally.
Only thing that's deluded is the idea that the socialist politics of the west are sustainable.

yeah but mr working-hard-then-gets-hit-by-a-buss or gets ill should be able to get healthcare. public healthcare should exist but only for unavoidable health issues.

If he's working hard enough, he's mr-should-get-insured

But I get the point

>b-but, muh body acceptance!

hmm, we could pass a law that forces overweight people to go to a mandatory doctor check up (no insurance needed) here, the doctor will inject the obese person with pheromones that permanently release an airborn gas from the fatty's pores that causes everyone around them to vomit. the effects are permenant with no cure.

...

I'm an An-Cap and so I despise government involvement but the truth is that it's pretty much irreversible. Junk food is so cheap these days. Down the road from me, with a 5 mile radius, I can tell you 100+ junk food shops.

No amount of Government education helps either unless the Government starts banning fast foods shops and takes control of food produce like in the USSR. The trend to obesity is increasing, heck the US has the fattest President since the 1950's.

>You can't tax fatties more without causing an uproar so just increase taxes in general and give fit people tax breaks
Yeah you can. Lower or raise VAT depending on the products.

Mexico is the fattest country on Earth. Australia and the U.K. rival America.

How about you mind your own fucking business

Being this stupid in 2k17
All you have to do is google obesity by country to find out how fucking stupid you are

On one hand I despise big government, on the other I despise fat parasites gobbling my fucking tax dollars
>not deporting all fatties to a country that's already shit

>being a taxpayer
top kek @ your life

If I can't even board a bus or plane without the sizable heft of someone's side gut spilling over onto my lap, then it is my fucking business.

t.fat shit
go lose some weight you disgrace

>not buying anything ever
>not believing in Britain
what are you?

I'd say we abolish state healthcare (or atleast allow citizens a true opt-out), and start minding our own fucking business.

But that's just the edgy libertardian ancap in me.

We live in a culture that is too permissive/tolerant of bullshit, that i frankly I don't know.

Correct. When it becomes your business you handle it.

Not even fat. Project harder, you fascist pig.

well if you are not fat i will reinstate my point from earlier in the thread. I pay for fatties to get treatment to stay alive every time i buy anything not tax exempt. I have to squeeze into the sliver of chair left over on the plane because fat ass won't stop eating. the deeds of fat people are my fucking business

>calls out projection
>projects
this is liberal logic at its finest

Sumo wrestlers get so much puss tho.

regulation, subsidies and education created the problem in the first place, the idea of gov gyms in the other way is moronic.

People are fat becaue subsidies make bad food cheaper than it otherwise would be, there is corn syrup and soy in fucking everything; and education fooled millions into believing BS like the food pyramid and grain based diet and cholesterol and fats being Satan in nutrient form. Not to mention the media making seem nutrition a far more complicated topic than it actually is.

You don't own other people.

>Imagine if half of the USA just started doing deadly amounts of heroin.
If it were niggers I'm sure as hell I wouldn't complain.

At least you explained one part of it.

Stop letting poor people buy junk food with food stamps.

Seriously if you take out the Hispanic and black populations, the US obesity rates are below Europe's (except for the deep deep south, but again that's poor people + fried foods + welfare diet).

This.

In the 60s there was a study done trying to determine the causes of obesity. In the test population of rats the scientists literally COULD NOT force obesity to develop, the rats would just stop eating once they were full even if extra food was provided. They decided to replace the rat food with human junk food and fucking voila, in two weeks the rats were obese.

In a similar study some obese people volunteered to be monitored 24/7 and fed what was essentially nutrient-rich slop instead of their normal diets for a period of months. They ate maybe 1000 calories of the slop per day, didn't feel hungry, and lost absurd amounts of weight.

The answer to the obesity question is that our society has engineered foods designed to make us want to eat more. It's that simple. If we want to solve it we need to regulate the shit out of food companies or educate people. In all honesty though the information is pretty straightforward. If you don't want to be obese, just cook all your own food. Don't eat anything that comes pre-cooked or out of a vending machine. Very simple in concept but absurdly difficult for some people to adopt.

There's good and bad ways that deal with the problem and are posted every single time this thread pops up.

and
have the right ideas. I know a lot of people want to 'educate' the potential fat out of these kids but you never went to school with nogs and mexicans. I assume you got a glimpse of what it would be like if you took a health course or anything like cooking in school, you'd understand just how easy and prominent the lack of caring is. Considering nogs and mexicans are both literally the obesity problem in America, and they are literally the worst fucking students ever during public school years, thinking that education about this will do anything is a fucking joke.
Take away the ability for them to use welfare on shit food, then you're not interfering with the businesses by regulating what they can sell (statists out REEEEE) since welfare is supposed to be good for people not bad, and it's made worse by the fact that we then want to have healthcare and other such welfare strained by people who are unhealthy BY CHOICE.

>oh no but I can't afford healthy food
Yeah I'm so fucking sure, if you really don't know how to shop then maybe you really do deserve to starve to death or something because you are evidently too stupid to live.

>>oh no but I can't afford healthy food
This is a complaint I don't understand. I've seen people complain on the internet (already set myself up for failure here) that they literally "can't afford not to eat" at Wendy's or whatever because of cheap 5 dollar deals or some shit.

Are these people actually too stupid to live or are they just spoiled babies that don't want to eat anything but fried tendies and soda?

Live and let live.

>99,9% of murica is obese and/or doesnt even lift
>Dumber and lazier than ever
>Didnt-even-go-to-college level retarded
>Unambitious, useless sacks of fat

All you have to do to keep yourself and your family relatively GODTIER is just eat right and have your kids get a proper education.

The world desperately needs a purge, what better than one driven by poor selfcontrol?

What you SHOULD be focused on is how you can avoid these fat cunts draining your taxmoney as they die.

Well I figure if it's the latter then they can fucking deal with it by not allowing them to purchase garbage using shit like food stamps and also make it illegal to transfer food stamps so there's incentive not to trade them for booze and chips cash. I'd say that we should issue stamps according to specific ID that you have to show when using them but apparently requiring people to have ID is racist.

Also if it's the former and they realistically can not figure out how to shop then yeah just refer to the last line of my last post, I can't understand any possible way around being that stupid.

Only user making any sense ITT
