i particularly like the part where the post-war government decided purely by fiat that manufacturing jobs should support a good standard of living because there was a good chance of massive civil unrest if they did not

and then people forgot all about the massive government intervention part and just became fixated on and obsessed with the manufacturing part

good poo poo

that didn't really happen and most manufacturing jobs actually sucked but sure you were technically getting by and technically having a "good" standard of living compared to your parents (who were your age during the great depression).

the housing was usually shoddily built, appliances constantly needed repair but at least you had them, same deal with the cars. there were nice manufacturing jobs but only to a limited extent and usually in certain industries in certain places.

boomers et al just talk it all up because they vaguely remember things were fine when they were young kids being blasted in the face by the local poison truck on their way to eat lead paint at school

mechanized, but labor nonetheless

the us has shifted to a largely service-based economy and now there are whole swathes of "workers" who do nothing but sit behind a desk all day typing, so they turn to food and sugary drinks as a way to combat the soul-crushing tedium and find even a moment's joy in their lives

if they actually worked a job where what they accomplished was meaningful then the obesity rates would plummet

that's a contributing factor but it's not the main one. america is fatter than most first-world nations, and places like japan with highly mechanized labor have far lower obesity rates than the USA

it's the easy availability of refined sugars and complex carbohydrates, mostly, and americans' inability to keep from gorging themselves on them

its this

pretty much all the other developed nations are catching up to america's in fatness and the australians and a few others are already ahead.

its all down to the fact that food is massively less expensive than it was in the past and when food became cheap enough in each country to largely wipe out outright starvation tends to be a good predictor of when in the future that country would be full of very fat people, because it takes a lot of time of overeating building up before it really shows

i think that its more that industrial processed unhealthy convenience food is massively less expensive than it was in the past and is less expensive/more convenient than healthier options

california farm workers are a well-studied population for this

this is a fake concept, so no argument that relies on it is real. there is also not really such a thing as a "healthy food" despite how much scam artists want to sell you they have the magic healthy food that you can eat as much as you want. it is solely down to people being able to afford more food and largely doing so.

all food is much cheaper and more available in the us compared to the money people have to spend than it was before ww2, and especially than it was prior to first world war when america was still majority rural with tons of the rural population essentially operating just enough above substience level to survive a bad year or two every so often

its 100% that corn is cheap as poo poo, is incredibly energy dense, and can be made into any number of products that have generally good shelf stability.

the "healthy alternatives" are only that because their calorie per dollar value is so low.

aussies are even fatter and dont do nearly as much corn cuz corn isnt as easy to grow there.

simple fact of the matter is if your country functions right at all you're going to end up with a lot of cheap food one way or the other, and thats a good thing with a side effect of people getting fat

"junk food" is a concept made up by people who want to convince you that all you need to do is buy their junk that they're selling as food instead. "processed food" "industrial food" etc are all meaningless. it's the same as when some place decides they're going to fight obesity by taxing the soda that has 30 grams of sugar per 8 ounces but not the pure orange juice that's 35 grams of sugar because the oj isn't Junk.

you can choose to not believe it, but that's just because you buy into some serious orthorexia bullshit that might as well be a picky little toddler's food opinions.

He's not wrong, ultimately it comes down to calories in versus calories out. "Junk food" just represents food that is high in calories, which was useful back in the day.

Go look at what manual laborers in the US ate in the mid-nineteenth century. poo poo like bread fried in pork fat.

now we have poo poo like this but no way to burn the calories off
