The federal government gluttonously consumes 31¢ of every dollar Americans create. In return, we get nothing, because the government is useless. It doesn’t even defend the border from foreign invasion. To grasp how useless it is, consider that there is an obesity epidemic and that Fatima Cody Stanford is a member of Joe Biden’s 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee:

Stanford, a doctor specializing in obesity medicine at Mass General Health in Boston, claims diet and exercise have little impact on the disease that affects nearly half of all Americans, so what does she think people should do about it?

Embrace it, because like sexual deviants (according to liberal ideology), fat people are born that way.

“The number one cause of obesity is genetics,” Stanford told CBS’ Lesley Stahl.

60 Minutes specializes in catering to those with an excessive appetite for liberal idiocy. Yet not even Stahl could refrain from a skeptical expression:

You might just as easily claim that smoking cigarettes is caused by genetics. Proneness to addiction is surely biological. However, smokers are not a preferred identity group according to cultural Marxist ideology, as the morbidly obese now are.

Stanford elaborated during the interview to claim that an overwhelming majority of U.S. doctors hold a bias toward obese patients.

Doctors fail to affirm their identity by recommending they lose weight. Such fatphobia constitutes not merely bigotry but oppression, according to Democrat ideology.

According to a USDA press release,

“The 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee will examine the relationship between diet and health across all life stages and will use a health equity lens throughout its evidence review to ensure factors such as socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, and culture are described and considered to the greatest extent possible…”

Since there are always going to be fat people, maybe Pfizer can help impose equity with a mandatory drug to make everyone obese.

Obesity is a risk factor for many serious diseases, prominently including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Whatever the ailment, obesity will make you more likely to get it and make it more severe when you do. It will take years off your life. Yet obesity has its advantages; by driving up the mortality rate, it helped our rulers hype Covid as a life-threatening disease.

In case you are wondering how someone as clueless as Fatima Cody Stanford could be a doctor, much less a member of a federal committee empowered to tell us how to live, the mentality exemplified by a surgery internship program at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine may help explain:

On their website, Loyola claims that the internship “is intended to encourage medical students from racial and ethnic groups that are underrepresented in medicine to consider pursuing a career in academic surgery.”

Applications are limited to those who identify as “African American/Black, Hispanic/Latinx, American Indian/Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander.” Notably absent from the list are Asians and white students.

It isn’t just Loyola:

In an interview with the Daily Caller, [Do No Harm] senior fellow and University of Michigan professor emeritus Mark Perry pointed out that Loyola’s actions should not be viewed in a vacuum, rather they are “representative of the illegal discrimination taking place at almost every US medical school on the basis of race, color, or national origin.”

Under liberal hegemony, the primary purpose of healthcare is the same as for journalism, education, entertainment, et cetera: to impose moonbattery. That is the only effective purpose of our cripplingly expensive federal government.
