Obesity, government and media influence on everyone.
I realize that America is the most obese country in the world. Well why is that? Is it because there’s a McDonalds around just about every corner? Or is it perhaps a more psychological reason that’s causing this? Let’s think about this.
Have you ever thought that the media could be involved somehow? Or is it because of people’s job regulations that make people lazy and just go home, eat, and sleep? Could the government be involved?
Let’s start with the media. What do we know about the media? Have you ever seen a funny blooper cut of news casts fighting over the better microphone spot? Or maybe more commonly seeing news casts lined up each with different channel logos? And what do news casts do to grip people’s attention? They add frightening stuff about gun shootings, robbery and etc. They do this to make the top news casts, and earn more money. And what do you think this does to locals? They get paranoid. In the constitution, there is a right to bare arms. So people buy guns to protect themselves and lock their homes. Well if everyone in the US gets paranoid what’s going to happen? Well this might be the same way with our government, only it’s national. Since our government is paranoid, what do they do? They want to be on top of the other countries. So they push more labor into our citizens and raise prices to fund money for the stuff they need for things like the Iraqi War. But over in Iraq, there’s always minor wars going on because of religion, they are not a free country like ours. So do we really need to be over there? And what does this have to do with obesity? It’s stress. All of this and that are causing us all stress. And yes stress and depression can cause overweight people over a period of time. For example, if parents are overstressed by having to work so hard, they just want to go home, eat, and sleep, for the most part. And what do children take in from their parents? That it’s normal to be like that. So they become obese and so on. Since this is the most obese country in the US, we’re the most stressed. And we can blame the government on it. Think about this, we are not the best country in the world, because our government is greedy and paranoid. Why should we have to buy oil from other countries when we have plenty in this country, let alone our own state of Minnesota? Did you know that Minnesota alone has enough oil to provide us approximately 50 years worth? But why aren’t we using it? The Tree Huggers Association protects the natural refuge of our country. But importing oil costs us. So you be the judge on who’s right.
Back to the main point, if the government made better decisions, maybe we wouldn’t be in so many crises right now. Trust me; this is more then just a financial crisis, its way more then that. Our government is so secretly linked to everything that it gets to the point where our citizens are obese from overstress of the media, to being over labored just to pay the bills which are steadily inclining.
So what should teens do to help themselves out? Well my opinion is that it’s entirely up to them. No one should try to control what a person eats. A lot of people are disgusted by those who eat chips for breakfast. Well personally I think those people need some respect. Everyone has a right to eat what they want. If that person has a problem with what others are eating, they should deal with it on their own. The government is trying to control what are in vending machines now to fruit snacks and breakfast bars. I think that won’t work. People will find a way to get their fatty foods. Fatty foods are what pleases the taste buds and help a person relax after a stressful time. Pleasing a sense in the body helps ease a person’s stress. And the easiest way of stimulating a sense is by eating.
My last opinion is that people should try to balance their nutrition. They should get the fatty food they crave and some decent foods they like to balance the nutrition. It should be entirely up them what they want in their diet so you are the boss of what you want.
