Jingthing (I must admit) is right: "the cheap processed food environment for the poorer masses almost guarantees life shortening obesity,"

BS. Has more to do with what people like, what they view as their priorities and a lack of education or concern about their looks and well being. Plenty of wealthy people eat like crap and plenty of poor people eat well and take care of themselves.

In my state, a family of 3 can get about $ 480 a month in food stamps and they can qualify for this while working.

Chicken is not expensive. Sirloin is on sale for $ 5.99 a pound 2 days a week. Flank steak is $ 5.99 a pound. Grab a couple of squash/zucchinis, make some brown rice and you have a meal for 3 that is healthy and costs the same or less than that McDonalds crap.

But nooo, some people just like that McDonalds crap and are apparently too lazy to shop and take the time to cook healthy.

I knew this already, but maybe you didn't.

North Korea is EXTREMELY racist:

“He is a crossbreed with unclear blood,” the North says.

And later: Obama “still has the figure of monkey while the human race has evolved through millions of years.”

“It would be perfect for Obama to live with a group of monkeys in the world’s largest African natural zoo and lick the bread crumbs thrown by spectators.”

From the same link...

The diatribe, published May 2, almost escaped foreign attention. But Joshua Stanton, who blogs regularly about the North’s viciousness and rights violations, uncovered the Korean-only piece, as well as a separate, milder article that was translated into English and in which Obama was called a “wicked black monkey.”

Liked the "milder" bit...

Now just need to wait for Denis Rodman to explain this away.

Korea both North and South developed their nationalism via the colonial power of the day; Japan. As such both have a distinctly racist view of the world and their place in it.
