6. Part of what causes obesity is poverty

You buy and eat what's cheap...which is fatty meats (if any), high carb, empty calorie cheap food. What fills the belly but does nothing for nutrition.

It takes money to buy what is best and time to prepare it. People working 2 and 3 jobs just to keep a roof over their heads have neither.
