Blah, blah, according to various bland health information websites...the news today is that baby-boomers just aren't as healthy as their parents were. Then these same bland sites go on to sing their little song about "sensible diet and exercise". They never have the balls to spill the real truth: those baby boomer parents were not motivated by "health" they were motivated by a much stronger force: vanity.
Just take a quick peak at any photos from the 1950's--gorgeous people. Everyone is slim, hair done up, lipstick applied, suits worn, skirts pressed, shoes shined....
Then take a look at "anywhere America" today--I don't need to elaborate.
Vanity (and being judged by your looks) is an incredibly strong motivating force. Being "healthy" is just plain boring. Nobody is going to put down their big gulp soda for "health". Being judged by the sniveling masses--maybe then....
As we as a nation embrace "the beauty within"---you can say goodbye to a healthy population! And say hello to pajama wearing shoppers at the grocery store.
Being "always beautiful" results in lazy behavior. I can't believe how many hotel reviews I have read where people complain that there was no elevator! Unless you are handicapped--embrace this wonderful "forced exercise". What about the new home trend--wanting laundry rooms by bedrooms (?) Because the basement is "too far"! Just call it "a home gym"!
Don't even get me started on the long term health care savings of encouraging smoking--...screw Obamacare, get Marlboro care.
