Welfare and free lunch programs are making these kids fat. Why are so many Welfare kids fat, are we feeding them to well??????????????????????
I agree, America is the only country where the poor are all fat..we give these mooching losers too much...
Exactly. All children that are stupid enough to be born to poor parents should be 'dealt with'.
MSNBC loves class envy - even with fat kids.
NEW YORK - Overweight children from lower- and middle-income neighborhoods may fall off their unicycles more than their thinner peers in one measure of unicycle fitness, but the same may not be true of those from more affluent areas, a new study suggests.
Researchers found that among 480 children and teenagers who underwent unicycle exercise tests, those with a high body mass index tended to have a slower "get up off the ground and back onto the unicycle" recovery rate after their unicycle workout, but only if they were from lower- or middle-income neighborhoods. Those from affluent neighborhoods were less likely to fall because of the proximity of butlers or nannies running beside them.
