Didn't I call you hand-wringers out in the 7 billion people thread? Your win-loss record is like 0 and infinity.

Can't you see what's right before your eyes? The agricultural history of the last century includes such massive gains that poor people are now obese!
Oh come on, UT! Now you're just being disingenuous. You can't compare poor people in a wealthy country like the US with people in the third world suffering from famine.

Would you call these African famine victims "obese"? You're comparing apples and oranges.
