New Report Confirms Conservatives Are Responsible For Runaway Health Costs

The results of an adult obesity study conducted by the Trust For Health (TFAH) and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation shows that states historically viewed as having the highest proportion of Fundamentalist Christian groups and Conservative Republicans ( read- The South) are once again putting the highest burden on healthcare while simultaneously most actively fighting healthcare reform. Since Barack Obama assumed the Presidency the number of states where the population is the fattest-over 30% listed as obese- has doubled from four to eight. These are Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma*, Tennessee and West Virginia. The assumption for the rise in tonnage is suspected to be due to stress eating since President Barack Obama's election.
