Reading the comments, I'm reminded of when I worked at a grocery store, and had the utmost pleasure of being witness to a wholesome couple with their child at the checkout who were clearly dealing with hard times. Their poor child was really trying to get their parents to let her have one of the $0.60 candies next to them. After a minute of this, one of the parent's turned to her and said, "We can't afford that." They had just finished placing WIC items on the conveyor belt. You really felt for that little girl.
And then both parents started loading up boxes of beer.
Bruh
NGL, you had me on the first half. I was even going to comment how saying no to the kid may be a better outcome in the future.
@@deenman23basically foodstamps but predetermined categories based on age of child
beer... well, alcohol, is a funky combination of lipid and carbohydrate, it is in a way, a kind of food, just that most of the micronutrients are lacking. if beer is cheap enough, it'll probably meet most of the macronutrient requirements, a bit of cheap hamburger and some vitamin pills are all a person really needs for most of a month.
there was a study a while back, it was done on prisoners. they were put on a hypoglycemic diet and violent incidents dropped. when followed, the ones that didn't keep to the diet were back on booze and back in jail, they were using it as a liquid calorie, yet if they'd popped a tictac every few hours they'd have been fine. if it didn't get people drunk, but kept them fed, would you object to them buying it? if it's liquid food that's cheaper than good food, what choice have they got?
@@_Lis25 imagine thinking that beer makes you poor.
for people saying some obese people cant help it, it is around 2 percent of obese people who can actually say it is glandular or related to negative health conditions
Or they are in age groups that are more likely to have cancer and the like and in turn have low energy and cant move around much, then again dieting does not require energy. The less times you put shit into your mouth, the thinner you get.
Then again, obese people get cancer more often too.
You know how obese people look older than they are? Their bodies think so too. It is like speedrunning to the next age group and you get all the 'great' things along with it too.
You can still get in shape with health issues. It’s just harder. There are some VERY niche exception but there are incredibly rare (probably 0.0001% of the population. I have a chronic illness for example and still weigh 220lbs at 10% body fat lol. People are just way too lazy.
It's zero percent. There is not a single human being (or animal or plant) on the planet that can gain weight without overeating. If there is, you'd have dozens of physics professors lining up outside their house wanting to study them. It's literally impossible.
Some people might be more genetically disposed towards gaining weight, but the same is true for alcoholics and gambling addicts. We should offer assistance, but we shouldn't deny that they're the ones who do it to themselves.
Negative physical conditions, yes, but as a inpatient mental health provider, I’ve seen enough to know that mental trauma is one of the largest contributors to people over or under eating.
I dated a girl who had hypothyroidism. Yes, she took medication for it. She watched what she ate more than diabetics. She looked a little more thic than Christina Hendricks.
I was poor as shit, and frozen vegetables for soup is cheap af lol
That's what I'm saying. When you're truly poor, you're skinny AF. Rice and beans is what real poor people eat. Equally malnourished, but skinny.
Bro, you get a box of ramen noodles for a few bucks. 😂 dollar tree and ramen noodles were my haven when i was poor.
BAYZED
you're so right. frozen veggies are crazy for how cheap they are per pound. Frozen broccoli is like 1/3rd the price of fresh broccoli, and fresh broccoli is already super cheap. Frozen chicken is the same price or sometimes cheaper than fresh chicken too. Rice chicken and broccoli comes out to be like $2 a meal with only 30 minutes of prep time.
@@jon131Sometimes I feel like its easier to buy ingredients for food rather than buying it pre-made already.
I grew up poor and skinny. I'm still poor and skinny. I don't know how people can claim that being poor inevitably leads to weight gain.
If you're gaining weight while being poor you're not oppressed lol
People are insane, even if poor people HAD to eat unhealthy food, then just eat less lmao?
because a lot of people on food stamps have other poor life skills so they just buy frozen stuff they can reheat in the microwave. I see it all the time.
A man is not a statistic, but when I was sad and depressed I used to eat a lot of shitty food and was obviously out of shape, then when I got a bit more of a positive outlook on life I started to eat better and I'm now relatively ok with my body. Been equally poor the entire time.
I'm just saying maybe money is not the issue.
Why are you choosing to be poor?
“Eat an apple and go for a walk.”
-Bill Burr
It's literally thermodynamics, calories in vs calories out. So tired of hearing fat people constantly making excuses
Editor nuked the fuck out of Asmon with 1 million damage during that last split second.
Right? Lmfaooooooo yo this editor is great 😂😂😂😂
Yes, but Asmon openly admits to living an unhealthy lifestyle.
Even someone with the insight and above average intelligence and possibilities and options as asmongold cannot break his social conditioning. Should tell you enough about how hard it truly is.
Of course He rationalizes his behaviour as his choice because He has an inflated ego and wants to believe himself to be in control.
The same way He copes with his insecurities by being an asshole. Better to be rejected on being an asshole than being rejected while being vulnerable & true.
Asmon said himself he's aware of his bad habits. He doesn't make excuses for them, unlike the other people mention in the video.
@@Miranox2 Yep, and he doesn't use taxpayer money to support his lifestyle which is the point being made in the clip.
Asmon is right again. Hell even if you're not eating healthy, eating less literally costs less. That fat because poor thing is total BS.
Doesn't eating less cause an opposite effect? Your body enters starvation mode and starts reserving more fats. You don't need to eat less, you need to eat a moderate amount... given, if you have obesity, you're more than likely eating above moderate amount, so eating less is something you need to do anyway.
@@akumuryuu No, this is bullshit total fabrication of talking points based of of factual data.
Eat less lose weight, it is and always has been that simple. People just lack willpower and want excuses for their dog shit results.
That's a damn good rhyme
@@akumuryuu as a fat person who's lost over 50lbs from an intermittent fasting diet, cutting a fat persons caloric intake to even a third wouldn't cause "starvation mode". you need to remember that the reason people get fat(outside of medical conditions) is because of excessive eating. eating less is the key.
@@akumuryuu If you eat less your body will try to maintain itself by making you feel more tired so you will use less energy. This means losing weight sucks but you need to push yourself to get through it. I've never heard of someone gaining weight by eating nothing. You can lose 10% of your weight by fasting for 3 weeks. Problem is that people will gain back that weight because they return to their normal diet afterwards. Your body reflects your lifestyle, so if you go back to the same lifestyle then you go back to the same body.
Also "starvation mode" is a bad name for it, but what most people mean by that is ketosis. Normally your body will burn carbohydrates you recently ate as fuel, but in the absence of carbs your body will turn stored fats and sugars into ketones. This is an important part of survival, because it regulates your blood sugar when it gets low. This state can actually reverse your insulin resistance and cure type-2 diabetes because the two systems work together. Ketones raises low blood sugar, and insulin lowers high blood sugar. Consistently high blood sugar leads to insulin resistance and type-2 diabetes. Consistently low blood sugar leads to impaired brain function, seizures, and lower muscle mass, and is generally something that affects anorexic or malnourished people.
Neither of those should be the case as long as you have insulin and ketones regulating your blood sugar. I would call actual "starvation" when your body runs out of fat deposits and your body starts consuming it's own muscles for food. That's what leads to the skeletal look of anorexic people and potentially permanent damage to your organs.
My first job was at a gas station, the amount of people I saw coming in and spending nearly $100 or some time more than that with an EBT card on candy and junk food was alarming, MIND YOU THIS WAS JUST A GAS STATION, I had one regular who always did it, 4 kids, overweight as hell, drove a pos Suburban and basically lived off of child support and welfare, was just sad.
That was really mind blowing to me when I worked at a gas station. I don't understand how EBT is allowed for soda and candy, and it should be much more closely monitored because I know plenty of people that would loan their EBT cards out when they hadn't used all their allotted money for the month.
@@xemnas1997 bruh it's actually disturbing
The fact that welfare can be used for junk food at all and the government is fine with this is how I interpreted the lyrics.
Yep, worked as a stocker/cashier for Dollar General when I was younger and it boggled my mind-- wanted so bad to just pop off and tell them there's literally a grocery store and a walmart less than a mile away, why are you here!? Wasting your EBT on Chips, Sweets, and Soda. Being poor sucks, I get it-- alot of us have been there but you aren't garnering any sympathy when you actively keep yourself there. It really jaded me tbh lol
Same, it always boggles my mind why people buy the expensive gas station stuff when we have a proper supermaket litterally just 10 minutes (2 if you´re with car) away from us. Why buy overpriced water when you can buy 3 or 4 bottles of them for the same price just next door. I get that its laziness and it does keep me my job, but still, as someone who has to plan his money wisely each month, its just something ill never get used to.
As a produce worker, it shocks me how little people actually buy but pretend to be healthy. And despite prices being super cheap. Yes, strawberries are $5/lb because they're not in season anymore. But corn is $0.25 each. A whole head of iceberg lettuce is $2. 5lbs of potatoes is $2.50 and onions are around $0.80 each. Y'all spend $300 on trash for a week of food when you could spend $100 on produce and go for two weeks, given you take care of them. And quit crying about organic being overpriced. Most organic products are mere cents more, and far healthier.
Does produce mean fruits and vegetables?
>Most organic products are mere cents more, and far healthier.
Not necessarily. "organic" is an fda regulated marketing term, and it doesn't mean "healthier" it means "grown without synthetics"
You should see the kinds of fertilizers and stuff they use on those bigger "organic" farms, and the health ramifications of some of those old products.
It CAN be better, and healthier, but it's no guarantee of any of that.
I'd suggest a farmers market over a grocery store, even if "price" is the problem.
@@AppleBaronI would assume yes but I eat garbage
this. people keep up with 15 netflix shows a year but dont know the season price change of organic product. and still blame the system when everyone owns a portable real time library containing all of the world knowledge accessible instantly (which they often change every year for sidegrades and scammed features, to boot, on a product that destroyed right to repair, the idiocracy just writes itself lmao)
Bananas continue to be the cheapest item in store produce section by weight. Healthy, delicious and cheap.
Asmon is correct. I've lived below the poverty line for the better part of a decade on an indian reservation in the countryside and I've seen it first hand given so many of my people live on food stamps and other forms of government assistance. I've also been a cashier now and then and have seen how poor country folks use their food stamps and at some point a choice is being made to stay unhealthy, unfit, and obese. It's not everyone but, it's enough to know.
Same. It's actually cheaper to eat healthy, but it's not about the price, it's just that not only unhealthy food is tasty, it's a lot easier to eat something right off the package than to prepare a meal.
@@azahel542 I think deeper than that, these people have no hope for the future and have given up. They just want to take whatever little pleasure they can get out of life in the here & now rather than preparing to live as long as possible in a world where they never succeeded anyway. Which is pretty understandable imo. The thing about being ambitious is that you have to believe you can do it, make it; and these people don't believe that. And the worst part is, they're largely right. Nature isn't fair, it doesn't care, we weren't all born equal as the Bible says. There are always winners and losers in life, and much more of the latter.
@@larion2336there's a simple question to that who's fault is that
Fast food and pre-made food are just that -- fast and pre-made.
@@larion2336 some people feel like that for sure, whether lack of hope about the future or depression for a variety of reasons, but don't make the mistake of going deep and then thinking you found the one true reason. It doesn't make sense to dismiss the other reasons being raised like laziness (it's true prepared food is just easier) and taste preference (you're lying to yourself if you think healthy food tastes as good) and cost (despite Asmon and op's experience, there are places where fresh produce is more expensive than junk food... on a per-calorie basis it's true almost everywhere, on a per-volume basis it's true in many places) and social modeling (if you have fat parents, you're more likely to acquire behaviors that make you fat) and on and on. There's rarely a single cause for complex social phenomena.
That ending 😂
''Mmm'' -Asmongold 2023
They did him dirty with that one lmao
Dropping that hot take followed by the zoom in on the soda drink. Perfection!
That zoom in at the end 🤣
The fact that i can use my foodstamps to go buy junkfood at the gas station is pretty ridiculous
If I trusted th government to do it properly, instead of providing with $X a month they should have preset food they give out based on your weight.
If someone has to educate me not to eat sixty cheeseburgers a day in order to get healthy i dont deserve welfare to begin with or anyones support
Hi, I'm a veteran who gets food stamps while waiting on my VA disability to be approved. before I applied my family was still on it; I have two daughters who are disabled and it's tough to get work that understands that my family comes first. I have no issues cooking breakfast and dinner for my children and lunch for myself on the allotment of food stamps that we get from the government. It's not hard to learn how to cook, but there is some analogy to people who are overweight not preparing healthy food.
You look pretty capable playing the bass there chief.
What are foodstamps and how do they work? I'm just generally curious as a non-American who hears about them all the time.
@@juice6521 Citizens can apply for a card that the government tops off with money at certain intervals (I think it's per month idk). This money is supposed to be used to help families afford food but as expressed here and elsewhere the people with 'food stamps' are not always making the best/healthiest purchases
As someone that used to work at WalMart, I can confirm that many obese people would bring in a cart full of soda, chips, and Little Debbies at the beginning of every month and pay for it with food stamps.
Obesity is immoral
I think the problem is that to eat healthy you need to go grocery shopping, store the food, then cook and prepare the food/clean after yourself. That takes time compared to going to McDonalds and buying a meal. Especially if you have kids and work multiple jobs. I never had to deal with that because my mom cooked when I was growing up, but fast and processed food is very convenient and tempting. I think the convenience, accessibility of fast food is one of the reasons there is so much obesity in the States. I'm not trying to make excuses, I actually bulk cook at home , but its a lot harder than fast food.
I had been dirt poor, with 3 jobs, trust me, when you are poor, your time worth nothing, you can cood and prepare food yourself. it doesn't take long to put chicken and vage to electric grill and stir it up for 10-15 minutes. steak is even easier, put it in set the timer, filp it a few times that's it. for Chinese, there is a thing called rice cooker, put vages and meats/egg on top of that rice cooker, when the rice is cooked, a few drops of soy source is all you need. if you really dont have that extra 10-15 minutes per meal, I mean for god sake move to a different city. Don't stay in SF/LA/Chicago/Seattle/Portland, or NYC shitholes. you can get to a place like Greensboro NC, rent a place for 600 per month, and work for Chick-fil-a which actually gives you good pay and healthy food. forgot to mention, there are places like Aldi, where food are good and cheap, and the place is not big so you only need to spend few minutes there to get what you need.
Sounds like someone who's never been poor
@@SuwinTzi I haven't been poor, my parents worked hard to give me a better life. Is that an issue?
@@haihengh Glad you were able to make it work. Like I said before I cook at home myself. The point I was trying to make is that yes grocery food is cheaper but you put in more physical work and time to cook. Even if you need to cook in 15 mins, you still need to wash dishes which is another 15 minutes. It usually takes me about an hour to cook and clean. If you buy the whole chicken, you need to cut it into pieces. Is that difficult no, but it still is more work and time than buying something from the dollar menu. Because of this reason I think that's why so many people eat out so much if they have the money to do so. Whenever a country starts to have as much fast food as the US, that's when the obesity tends to rise. Also why are you calling those cities shitholes lol?
@@Wicker_ I actually think homemade food taste better. Nothings better than my favorite dish my mom would make. What I was trying to say in my above comment is that processed food is easier to prepare than home cooked food and that's why people eat a lot of fast food. I am not saying that because of that reason it's ok to eat out. I was saying that I think that is one of the reason there is so much obesity in the world. If you don't think the convivence of fast-food is one of the reasons for obesity in the Western World, what's your opinion?
Dude this editor, You the goat man
You should read up on food deserts, there are lots of those in America here fresh produce and so on just isn’t accessible. All there is are hyper processed chemical carbohydrate garbage.
discipline is on the decline in this country
And why is that?
Is it because our culture was dominated by left wing politicians who sold everyone a bag of lies that government can solve our every need?
In most of the western world sadly.
unfortunately people took 'you can do whatever you want' idea and turned it 'have zero responsibility for your actions and consequences that those actions might have'.
Addicts exist in every country, and always have
$5 rotisserie chicken
2 cases of ramen
green onions
2 bags of sprouts
carrots
spinach
chili paste
oyster sauce
a weeks worth of food for under $20
Stop with the ramen. I know this is old but go with oatmeal, grits, rice, beans. One whole chicken is NOT a week worth of meals. More like a week wort of dinners.
Being fat is for the MAJORITY OF PEOPLE a choice but being poor can be "forced" on you so yeah fair point
Nah, being poor is choosing to not make more money. Its that simple.
Its not that hard. Make more money than you spend, you will become less and less poor.
Applies to everyone.
Being "poor" can be unfortunate circumstance. Being FAT is a choice. The only thing that is required for weight loss is a caloric deficit. It; literally, takes negative work. A doctor even proved this via losing weight on a TWINKIE DIET.
The only thing required to not be poor is to spend less money than you make.
Dont even have to make more, just spend less.
@@Henry-kz4gn simple isn't ? Now tell that to a single mother with 2 child
Well, you can always save money by just eating less. With that money, buy a banana and a carrot and you're good to go.
“No self control and bad decision making”
A billion of sugar drink caps by his side 👀
If the calories are being burnt it's fine, heck most all "bad food" or "bad drink" is fine if you are not over eating or drinking.
Always remember, there are hardly any "bad foods", but their are a heck of a lot more bad decisions one can make.. to make the food bad.
@@CoalCoalJamesI totally disagree, the amount of sugar in soda and a lot of American foods is near criminal.
It might be hypocritical but he's still right
he is still skinny though, even though he drinks that much soda.
remember, Asmon doesn't promote or justify his behaviour. He admits he is a degen in his diet and tells his viewers to not be like him. Even on food stamps he ate unhealthy but maintained a good diet to remain skinny.
@@Ishaan_A outside of asmon's statements on his own diet, skinny does not equal healthy either.
Claiming that overweight people aren't "educated enough" to know that eating crap will make them overweight is even more insulting than pointing out they're overweight.
lol the close up at the end. You guys editing these add so much to it even with little things like that GG
I'm poor AF and I can afford produce like fruits/veggies. A bag of frozen green beans is 3.99 and a pack of Oreos is 6.99 here. For most people obesity is a choice and a lack of self discipline,period. It's not a hard concept, want to lose weight? Eat less. And when you do eat, eat non processed natural foods. If my poor ass living off 900$ a month can afford to eat right people on welfare most certainly can. This issue pisses me off tbh. I've seen the people getting EBT/SNAP cards.. they're fucking 300+ pounds with 4+ kids. It's poor choice making,period. Before some acktually Andy chimes in,yes, a VERY SMALL percentage of obese have thyroid or health issues to where they can't lose weight...my grandmother was diabetic and had this issue. But most obese people are that way because of their own dumbass choices. Tax payers shouldn't foot the bill to buy fatties Oreos or support some woman who popped out a dozen kids
Why you choose to be poor AF?
No one who lives in this world "chooses" to be obese. Almost everyone who is obese hate themselves for it. You have to stop being so narrow minded and blame everything on poor choices and lack of control. These people all had lives you know, most of them got this fat because of severe childhood traumas, abuse and neglect from parents, psychological disorders, etc... They're exactly the same as the drug addicts living under bridges, the only difference is the type of "drug" they ruin their lives with.
Based
You can eat "shitty food" because you're poor and still be relatively healthy and fit. The problem isn't just the diet it's the lack of coupling it with an appropriate exercise regime.
you can see it both ways ofc.
Plenty of solutions but these people rather die than accept it.
I don't agree though. Exercise doesn't help much with body weight. It's as simple as "eat as much as you burn", but you can only burn so much calories in a day so the most important part is still the "eat". These people just eat too much, it's that simple.
Yes. Exercise that diabetes away. Exercise that CAD away. I'm pretty sure that's not how it works...
@@DixxyV
Yeah but a sedentary life style makes a big difference. At my job I burn ~1000 calories from walking so much. I need to eat around 3k calories to maintain my weight
You don't even need exercise. You'll burn calories by breathing. They just won't stop stuffing their faces and blaming everyone but themselves.
The close-up on his soda.
There's literally smooth brains out there that think they're losing weight by drinking diet soda.
"diet" soda is a scam, like, yeah it doesn't have sugar, instead it has artificial sweeteners that are twice as bad for you, taste worse, and are infinitely more addicting, it baffles my mind how people don't understand this, regular soda is healthier overall, not by much but it is, way less artificial bullshit your body can't deal with efficiently
15% of welfare end up in the soda industry, 35% in junk/fast-food industry.
And it`s not that big a problem, I can just buy stocks in Fast food and soda.
Big Cheeto ruining peooles health
Lol
@@Tommysimonsenit’s those soda and junk companies that lobby to allow welfare to be spent on junk. Pepsi/Lays spend millions to lobby for it.
that's the adding-insult-to-the-injury part. not a peep from anti-capitalist activists about fat people habits fueling this shit. it's funny even when progressive speakers try to address this, their fanbase has an extreme negative response and then they tend to ignore the matter. funny in a sad kind of way.
If you can't use welfare and food stamps on diapers or hot prepared foods, it shouldn't be hard to make it unusable for the chip and soda aisle.
Guy said nothing wrong. I dont want to pay because people dont have the discipline to spend 30m a day working out.
How about 30 minutes a day making your own food
Ty for paying for my food stamps king/queen❤
No but seriously people are just lazy lol
You don't need to workout to lose weight (though it would be better to do so anyway), and you don't have to starve to lose weight. Simply getting into the habit of reading the back of what you're buying could impact the amount of your daily calorie consumption, which all the giga fatties never do.
@@Edon613 Lived it. most people just want to take advantage of systems. This is why social programs never work at all. I grew up in a "poor" neighborhood, nothing but Escalades, mustangs, chargers, etc. They're just taking governemnt checks then dealing drugs and getting whatever they wanted because they got a free house basically all their money goes towards recreational things. It was subsidized housing too so the Government KNEW they had the money but still lets them stay.
@@mikonson4091 I found that switching out a lot of drinks with just bottled water will drop your weight by a ton. I myself am still morbidly obese, but god damn I'm not as much of a fat as I used to be.
Asmon's best characteristic is his refusal to allow people to not take responsibility. He doesn't always see it correctly, but when he does it's based.
Exactly why I will always love Asmon - tells it like it is!
Dude who is your editor? Reveal him to the world, he deserves some credit:)
Check the bottom of the description
@@Theoscronosthanks didn't look there 😅
The zoom on the soda at the end with the straw sound is just the perfect ending.
The zoom on the soda at the end had me dyin 😂
The longest person to ever do a water fast was Angus Barbieri who went 392 days without anything but water (and electrolytes)- he had so many stored calories in his body that he was relatively fine throughout (he also had tea, coffee, soda water, vitamins). And OFC he lost a ton of weight by the end (from 214kg to 80kg). It's also not exactly super safe to do this, but then again there's nothing safe about being a human beached whale either.
392 days is false. Where did you find this bogus information from?
@dendrien it's not false. You can legit Google his name and a wiki page will show you this info. That being said, he was under strict doctor supervision and didn't live off of water alone. But it is legit info.
Makes me think of those old clips from The Onion where the FDA has little to no expectations for the average citizen yet people still disappoint them to the point of giving up.
LOOOOOOOOOOL bro one of my fav edits in a while. Asmon's wisdom combined with his tacit acquiescence.
What a title. Asmon's editors are so good at what they do.
i forgot which professor it was, but they proved that you can survive off of 7/11 junk food and not be obese. just pay attention to how much you eat
I recall similar study regarding McDonalds. Not a huge sample size, but it was on people in their 20s I believe. They swapped to only eating McDonalds for their meals. The results ended up being that they did notice they had less energy, but their weight didn't really change in a meaningful way. It's all about portion control. People need to realize that one shitty burger from McDonalds is still 700 calories. You can't be eating two of those for 1 meal and then still having 2 full meals throughout the day and snacks. Shy of a truly severe health issue (less than 1% of the population), weight truly is just calories in vs calories out.
if you get meats, cheeses, and the occasional sandwich or soup, you'd be fine.
It's when you eat the ho-hos and two-liters of soda that's the problem.
Isn't Asmon proof of that? He eats junk and drinks soda all day, but only has one meal a day so he's skinny
And do this one simple trick: EXERCISE
Calories in, calories out. Simple as. That's why asmon stays skinny, because he eats like once a day, and the meals he eats are generally in like the 400-700 calorie range if even that. Considering his sedentary lifestyle, he doesn't need any more than that. People get fat because they get too attached to the taste that the care for the amount of calorie dense foods they consume goes out the window cause it tastes so damn good. The addiction is in the taste.
Here in the UK we have fat people clogging up the tax-funded NHS and expecting the same level of treatment as people who make an effort to look after themselves.
Sorry to tell you social programs always fail, you're over paying Admins and bearcats to sit and do basically nothing. Social programs are not built to be sustainable, they're built to funnel tax money to people and corps essentially creating a monopoly in the system. Every single social program WILL fail, just a matter of time. Look at the US our entire country is in debt due to one program alone Social Security. They pretend you "pay into it" in reality you're having the government point a gun at you so they can use YOUR MONEY to pay for people NOW. The problem is you will ALWAYS get a decreasing population in rich countries, so the money will always dry out and the number of "Customers" will only increase thus inflating the already inflated budget even more.
In truth your "NHS" was built to fail, government programs don't shrink of magically become stable if your Raise taxes, the money will dry up eventually as the program will like I said just grow and grow and grow in budget needs every year perpetually. There isn't enough money in the world to pay for social programs, that's why the US and UK PRINT MONEY out of thin air, raising inflation, to temporarily pay for social programs that they KNOW the government can't afford.
It's a big scam, and you voted for it.
Everyone loves shitting on american healthcare, but honestly I refuse to pay into a system where the careless benefit the most. You go buy another box of twinkies, I'll pay my health insurance. We each get what we want.

They pass these habits onto their kids. It's a vicious cycle

This kinda reminds me of those recent smash and grabs from super markets out in Chicago a couple months back.
Everything was picked clean from the shelves except the produce aisle lol.

There's a CZcamsr that went into Appalachia and interviewed people. One of the things multiple people complained about is how the younger generations just do not work. They finish high school and then just stay at home and "collect checks".
That means they're 18 year olds applying for welfare and disability. Disability for things like "anxiety" and "obesity". Its become such a problem that businesses are struggling to find people to work.
So when you look around and see this self destructive trend destroying the community, I get it. He feels like he's bustin his ass, just for the government to take his money, and use it to pay people to slowly kill themselves. I can empathize with the frustration.
Just because you can live however you want, doesn't mean others have to be punished for it.
This includes fatties, single moms that chose a life of promiscuty, the drug addicted and so on
Which is what the right has been complaining about for 30 years now.
The government didn’t clock in my 9-8 shift just to give free Oreos to fat single mothers rascallin themselves to wal mart
Tell it like it is 👍
People don’t choose to be addicted to drugs. It’s a response the brain makes in trying to cope with trauma.
@@WowOafuseven if true, which is rarely the case, I don't care
People chose to take the drug in the first place which led to them becoming addicted. So yes people do choose to be addicted to drugs, why is everyone so opposed to Self-responsibility now a days everyone has to be a victim god damn
It doesn't help when the "FDA" comes out and says that frosted flakes are healthier than avocados.
It’s unfortunate how little people in the comments here understand how the brain works. People who overeat, starve themselves, become addicted to substances, or do other dangerous activities almost always have underlying mental trauma. When it is treated as trauma and therapy is pushed, success is far more common than telling people they are shit people who make shit choices. I’m a health care provider in inpatient psychiatric, and I see it all the time. Don’t condone the bad habits, but don’t put people down for it either. People only overcome it with a support system in their lives. Help them find that trauma they are covering and help them heal from it.
we do understand how the brain works but we also understand how physics work. No one forces you to overeat but yourself. It doesnt matter if its due to your mental state or stupidity or ignorance
@@5head860”it doesn’t matter if it’s due to your mental state” ok you just lost the plot, why do people do drugs, just don’t do them, no shit, that’s easier said then done and takes a huge toll on people. People obviously have self control and a responsibility to at least try to get better, but you should have empathy for people and attempt to help them, most people know they have a problem, but their addiction will tell them to stay with the status quo, because life is easier that way. Look at video game addiction, most of them know in the back of their mind that their wasting their life away but won’t change without intervention because they don’t see a reason to change, because change is scary.
@@shylogik i dont have empathy if your very own bad decisions have negative consequenses. Why should I? Youre right, if someone is a drug addict its extremely hard to get clean. But heres the point: The addict did make the decision to take these drugs while not being addict yet, there is a moment in time where these people decided to do it. Nobody forced them to take heroin (in almost all cases at least, lets not take victoms of crimes into account these obviously deserve every help they need), they die choose. Maybe because they felt like shit, their mental state w/e. Getting addicted still is their own fault and nobodys responsibility. Funny enough the same stance is taken by some former drug addicts I talked to.
No. I do put people down for it. I've lived in poverty my whole life. I was working 60+ hours a week milking cattle, rationing everything so I could get ahead, didn't allow myself pop or candybars or anything except on holidays. During this time I was paying for others to gorge themselves off my efforts. If they were in isolation your argument might hold water, but when they are doing this by living on those of us working our ass off and not enjoying the nice things they feel entitled too, no. Starve in the streets, I starved in the woods, it is motivating af to feel nothing but hunger all day everyday. Do or die, trauma or not they'll do something.
@@dfsfsdfd I also worked my way up, and even when I qualified for assistance, I never took it. But not everyone has that luxury. If we had more resources put into mental health, we wouldn’t have people like this. And “gorging” is hyperbole. The amount of assistance people get is less than most think. And the junk food companies, such as Pepsi/Lay’s keeps lobbying to keep junk food available on food stamps. I’m in the top 12% of earners now, and I don’t mind my taxes going to help people. I’d rather help poor people, even if some abuse it, than keep funneling my taxes to the rich, who all abuse it.
how do they literaly look like pigs care about your self plz
That zoom in is priceless.
That zoom in at the end was hilarious 😂
As a fat person of 95% of my life until more recnetly i can without a shadow of a doubt say its all choice. And dont be fooled thinking we also dont know that...
As a fat person who's losing weight, I can say that losing weight isn't as difficult as people may think. Seriously, for me, only a little bit of effort (the smallest amount) gave me more results than I ever expected.
@Amadeus_A same here dude the hardest part was looking at food differently. Once I saw junk as junk and I just wanted it for sugar or fat it changed everything. And little to no depression issues anymore!!!!
I shouldn't have to pay for someone else's lack of self control, and bad decisions. We're incentivizing an entire generation of exploiters, and those of us who contribute to society are being milked dry. The end of it needs to come.
Something has to parasite the system, its inevitable
my god that zoom at the end killed me xDDD
Editor wrecking him at the end lol
“Poor people can’t afford healthy food” is such a BS argument. I’ve been through some really slim times financially, and practically lived on baked chicken breasts and bags of steam-in-bag frozen vegetables that are 99 cents a pop. Maybe 30 bucks, and you’re set for the week.
Anyway, most people’s issue is drinking copious amounts of soft drinks. I can all but guarantee that if someone changed nothing at all about their lives aside from cutting out sodas, they’d still lose about ten pounds in a month with zero effort.
i saw fat ppl ask ppl for money... she has no money to weight reduce....
Me: u can just simple eat less to loss weight and exercise for free....
For the price of a large vanilla latte you can get a couple pounds of potatoes, a whole lettuce and cabbage, some carrots and maybe a couple stocks of corn.
Potatoes and corn are starchy and make people fat.

Okay. The editor actually made me laugh this time 😂
Asmond sipping the soda, just reminded me of the clip of the fat twins talking about water and soda -- and that they haven't drank water in ages because it tasted bad... or something to that effect
Being fat does not necessarily mean they eat too much. It just means they are not burning enough calories. High performance athletes have diets in the several thousand calories a day and yet they are lean and fit. So when they all make it about "fats eating so much food", I can only laugh at how ignorant that is.
Alright, so by your logic and words it's because they eat lots AND don't exercise.
Well shit, them fatties better start exercising to burn all those calories they take in
even if you eat less food, if it's too much sugar, you'll end up fat too.
Well it’s still technically true. You will gain weight If you eat more calories than you burn. That’s a fact. Most people eat way too much caloric dense food for their activity level. You could literally lay in bed all day and still loose weight simply by adjusting your caloric intake. This isn’t rocket science lol
i'd like to see you try to burn 8,000 kcal in a day with exercise alone. (iirc that's what the doctors on that 600lb life show counted those fat twins were eating)
I've got the hospital on speed dial for when you collapse.
haha the fucking zoom in at his soda habits got me
Remember to read labels when shopping too. You would be surprised at just how much food that doesn't need sugar but still has a bunch of sugar added to it.
I rarely go to maccas its usually after a gym day when i had basically air as calories that day
Corn, flour, oats and a lot of basic ingredients which can be used to make pasta, seitan and oatmilk aka healthy food is very cheap.
i love how the editor at the end zooms in on the coke.... :'D

I usually spend $80 a week on food and that's including alcohol and tea, which are literally the most expensive.
Mostly beans (
"Produce is cheap"
My robutle, Australia
I agree with all but the produce take. Where I live the cheapest bag of apples was like 8 bucks. One onion for a dollar each.
Poignant UMMM at the end to enforce the "lack of self control" emotion. Editor well done.
True, produce, regardless of fresh or prepackaged, is indeed usually cheaper.
I do know that there are frozen TV dinners you can buy for like $2 bucks a piece, depedning on where you shop, but spending that on produce will definitely come out better in the long run.
Sure, you may likely HAVE to get some unhealthy stuff but there are ways around making meals more balanced.
You could eat a couple of apples or you could eat a chocolate bar. I can see why someone would pick the chocolate bar over those apples. That's the reason fast food is so popular because it makes people "happy". It's no different than attempting to fill that void in your soul with material things. Certain things make people happy and they'll keep doing it even if it's bad and they know it, smoking, drugs, alcohol you name it.
I am currently eating radishes as snacks. They are 1 calorie. They cost a buck fifty a bag. Poor people can 100% eat healthy, you just wanna hit the drive thru.
As he slurps down his extra large diet soda....
that zoom was personal lmao. but yeah, if you're poor its cheaper to eat healthier within reason, potatoes, apples, pears, peanuts. all far cheaper than fast food take away
but if you're buying heads of lettuce and cabbage/kale to try and be healthy then yeah you're either going to starve or be broke
That Mercy background is GOOFY.
People choose not to by fruits and vegetables instead they buy processed foods like microwave burritos or tv dinners.
Maybe produce is cheap in some areas. I literally cannot form together a meat dish and vegetable dish thats more than a small beef patty and steamed carrots for less than i can get processed food. Frozen meals are by FFFAAARRRR the cheapest way to eat (aside from ramen) in the rural midwest. There may be a way for a full-size family to eat fresher for less, but as a single jackass i cant justify wasting so much food and money because it doesnt keep long enough unless i eat the same thing every day. Fast food isnt terribly cheap either. Sometimes you can get a few cheap sides out of someone who sells corn out of the back of their pickup on the corner or something but otherwise you ARE paying more to eat fresh...even if you mean subway's slogan, cant get out of there for under $12 anymore. Its hilarious and asmon is objectively wrong when he days "produce is cheap" in an across-the-board fashion as he did.
That's a good fucking song
As someone that struggles with self-control, I was actually a lot thinner when I was dirt poor than now that I'm reasonably well off.
And I was basically on the "Asmongold diet" I'd eat a thin steak a day, and that was it! I exercise a lot more now, so I'm bulkier, but I also binge on shitty food that ends up being a lot worse....
the ZOOM!
poor people tend to live in areas called "food deserts" look it up
