Why there is so many fat people in America.

There was a time I came home from college on a break and my mother called me a fat-ass and lazy. She was commenting on my beer gut, to be honest wasn't caused by beer but by rum, and further more she stated that there was no justifiable reason to have a gut rather than a six-pac at my age. Keep in mind I'm 6'1 and weighed 205. I wasn't obese, I could see all my lower extremities. But I did become paranoid about my fat and started to eat better and workout. I would've been “hurt” if I had feelings, thankfully I don't.
I was a little shocked that my mother would say this to me, mainly underexposure to her cruelty had made me weak. Also it's so socially taboo today to comment on someone like that, (except for those fucking evil smokers who are almost as evil as baby killers). Come to think about it I remember back in third grade I was sent to the principle's office and i think suspended for recommending to a fat girl to go see jenny craig.
Think of the repercussions that would occur if you called someone a fat-fuck? You would get sued, maybe loose your job, and they would get fatter eating donuts to make their bruised feelings go away.
What kind of over sentimental, weeping, fainting goat society do we live in? If we were allowed to criticize fat people openly like we criticize smokers we'd all get paranoid and eat better, maybe workout and ultimately be healthier. We could set an example to our illegitimate children.
There is that distinct possibility that sheltered fat people would kill themselves. But then again I think about all the times I was on a six plus hour flight sitting next to a person who's rolls would roll off their coach seat onto my arm causing it to cramp in pain. Being fat like that is indicative of their heath anyways right?

I don't know, it's just a thought.
