[harm_less]

But its so much easoer to point the finger at those being affected & sing that much loved (& ever so predictable) old refrain'It's all their own fault'...

eating, drinking, smoking themselves to death is their choice

If that is the case the solution is to tax cigarettes, alcohol, junk food and sugary drinks into oblivion, but I don't see a government with enough spine to take those measures any time soon. FGS our current government has seen fit to neuter the smoke free legislation so a forlorn hope it would appear.

But then if the causal issues weren't available do you really think that our population, and health system, would be fine and dandy? Really!?? Humans have a strong drive to sidestep personal responsibility so I very much doubt it, and skin colour isn't a governing factor in that. More than enough obese, chronically unhealthy and/or incarcerated white folks to prove that point.
