Less is relative

Eat the correct amount for a healthy weight and make sure you're getting the right stuff

Hunt your own meat

or if you want to get crazy, maintaining your consumption with your exertion

I hear good things about elk

its all bad for the economy though so dont do it

There are industries built around health too

If you were gonna try to fuck the economy overall you'd have a hard time

Unless you went innawoods

It's a sad day when Asians, who've traditionally enjoyed some of the best health, think following the Standard American Diet is a good idea.

maybe the future wont be so bad after all, just need to consume the right industrys and let the economy adjust

There might not be a better example of the broken-window fallacy than eating yourself to death to prop up the US economy.

its not really something that people contiously consiter but it is how the economy is built and requires of them to behave

many european countries as well

You're looking at this too top-down. People are naturally drawn to fat salt and sugar, so selling them that makes more money more reliably

That's true, a lot of people don't realize how intentionally the food industry is trying to kill us.

That's the opposite of what I just said lol

I was replying to Arch-Fiend.

Bitches just wanna have a thriving business, and if selling you corn infused candy gets them there, they'll do it

Ultimately you decide what to buy and how often

let the free market do whats best for the free market and whatever happens happens except for all the times it also lobbys various governments to de-incentivize other ways of living, creates a market place were more individualistic economies can no longer compete and ruins the environment in order to maintain its unsustainable need for growth. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

should ask how easy it is for someone to legally feed a family by hunting in the united states

It's not a free market lol

its just the manifestation of a market where the best at controling it gain control of it and will never let go while selling you the promise that giving them more freedom or giving them more restrictions will make the market more healthy while all it really does is secure their domination over it

what do you expect in a world where a man has little he can do but become one of a million in another man's schemes?

You seem really infatuated with that line

i came up with it on the toilet, i was proud

Being involved in someone's plan is ultimately meaningless. Any megalomaniac can come up with such a plan

hey thats what i think but the world clearly knows better

who am i to argue with that?

It's always the unhealthy stuff that seems to be subsidized.

I mean, where's the asparagus lobby? 😛

Or Big Broccoli, lol.

In Canada, dairy, poultry, eggs and grain are subsidized

and highly regulated as a monopoly

Of course, we hate monopolies, though.

When the state has a monopoly, though, we call it a social program and it's just great.

@Beemann define subsidized. Subsidized by the consumers dollar? All of these industries pay exhorbitant fees to the government in order to maintain market protection.

The meat and dairy industries greatly influence US governmental policy, from my understanding. Also, pharmaceutical companies.

What a joke. It shouldn't cost anyone more money to eat less crap.

They could just stop subsidizing the crap.
