Life expectancy is increasing in the US, but not as quickly as in other countries, despite having the highest healthcare spend per person, and that is due to obesity.

One has to be educated in order to make good choices and yet our education system is slowly but surely failing. Obesity is preventable, yes. But the people in charge, despite their lip service to the issue, are doing NOTHING to actually prevent it. |

Elaborate.
I mean, sure, it's very easy to say HFCS doesn't "cause" obesity in the sense that simple exposure to it makes you fat. But if you eat sufficient quantities, it can be an extreme contributing factor. And in a society that is bombarded with it, isn't it more practical to look at HFCS as a significant "cause", though it isn't technically true?

Imo, the best thing that can be done is to stop corn and sugar subsidies.
