Shouldn't this question be in the health section?

They are both connected to AGW and will cause cataclysmic results by 2021. Also as obesity increases it will cause the Earths axis to tilt even more resulting in further climate change. Just look at the correlation between Al Gore's expanding waistline and the purported increase in global climate change.

The difference is that with the exception of some relatively minor regulations, obesity and heart disease don't require significant government intervention. Thus the irrational fears of 'big government' infringing upon our 'freedoms' aren't triggered, so people have little incentive to deny the science. As opposed to AGW, which requires significant government regulation, and thus triggers fear among the politically conservative, and thus denial.

Those commie doctors are trying to take away my right to eat chocolate until i explode! they should all be in jail.

I suppose with this question you are trying to insinuate that if one scientific theory turns out to be correct then they will all turn out to be correct. Sweet, now I can use my time machine to go back to before Y2K happened and be a flying car salesman on the moon.

Better eat them while you can because the leftists are proposing a twinkie tax.

Its mostly a heredity factor and or body types(generalized). The exception to the rule is modern or first world countries have higher levels of obesity but lower birth rates. While the opposite exists in third world countries. So to break it down where the brain dead can equate, is the smarter you are the fatter you will become. So yes you could leave doctors out of the matrix
