Yes! I can't wait for food production and distribution to be put in the hands of government officials. Access to food is going to be equalized so hard!

The market has been taking care of it for too long, we're getting too fat, we need a few decades of food controlled by the police to get back into shape.

> we're getting too fat

I don’t know if you’ve seen the average American waistline, but yes, this part is absolutely true. Unhealthily so.

Being fat can be a sign of malnutrition. Americans aren't just fat because they eat too much, many are fat because they live in food deserts or have no time to cook and no access to affordable healthy food.

You're not helping your argument with this example imo.
