MousePotato's Journal: Politically Correct Terminology Sinks To New Low...

This is just one of those astounding things... 11 million Americans who were starving no longer are! Yes folks it is true. With the swipe of a pen and a quick relabeling of terms our government spin doctors have magically declared that there are no longer any hungry or starving Americans.

Just 11 million folks with "very low food security" and zero starving people in this country.

This is total bullshit.

I hate pc terms like this as they are just convenient ways to diguise or veil situations in less than accurate ways.

Starving is Starving. Hungry is just that. /me goes back to work...

meanwhile

tens of millions of other americans are gluttonous to the point that obesity is causing serious health problems that are going to cause a massive break down in the health care system in the near future.

You're spot on there.

However, seeing how I make a living off of turning the fat ones into thin ones that just means theres plenty of opportunity out there for folks like me in the fitness industry :)

Interestingly enough that obesity factor may just undo the tremendous gains we've made in life expectancy in the last 150 or so years. Maybe time to tap into the oversize casket industry...

When you say "gluttonous" are you refering to persons with excessive food security?

the government
