Food deserts and the carfree
#176
Firm but gentle
I work with about 30 people just outside of Chico, Ca. Probably one in five are not overweight to some extent, none of them are anywhere near poverty level, they are just modern American auto sapiens. We have a lot of great fresh healthy food available here. Most folks here sit on their ass most of every day.

And that, right there, is a big part of the problem.

That wasn't very helpful. Are you saying the USDA is promoting food deserts for political reasons? What political reasons? What is their "agenda"? As they say on another popular webisite, ELI5: Explain it like I'm 5.

Nothing will help you understand what you choose not to understand. But thanks for the advice, I will no longer consider you capable of and/or willing to understand "grown-up" concepts, and that you prefer to (I assume) play dumb.
