Sorry, but undereating is a contributing factor. It causes your body to store more calories as fat. Also, I said that it was a combination of said factors.
Now, if you're talking about bulemia or annorexia, that is a whole other topic, and not one I feel comfortable discussing.

There is also a strong correlation between those living on welfare (well below the poverty level) and obsesty. Considering that the cheapest foods are lacking in nutritional benefits, I can see why.
It's a scientific fact that obesity is rarely caused by "lack of control". In order for overeating, or binge eating, to be a significant cause of obesity, you have to eat so much that you're more likely to die from overconsumption.
Obesity is more often caused by combining the following: Undereating, Eating nutrionally-deficient foods, and a sedentary lifestyle.
My advice? Get up, go outside, eat something besides pop and chips, and stop starving yourself out of guilt. Also, a positive mental attitude seems to have a huge impact.
Either force the government to change the way this law is handled, or have the government insist that every "loyal citizen" have "papers" which must be presented at all times when requested by an officer of the politariat, or USS Secret Police (added for effect). As opposed to hiding behind FAA policy for their Red Square attitude.
Just a quick point. We Americans do not live in a Democracy. We live in a Republic. Not that it matters in this case.
If someone imposes upon us a rule, law, or a restriction, we have the right to be allowed to examine it, and at the time of request, not when "they" feel like it.
If it's not so much a legal issue, then it could be seen as a consumer issue. Problem is, if you don't like it, what other comparable options exist? The train or bus does not measure up to riding in an airplane.
If a law cannot be examined, interpreted, or challenged then it is not a law. That only applies to laws that affect you personally (or have the ability to).
Also, how can people be expected to obey a law that they cannot examine? The old adage, "ignorance of the law is not a defense" comes to mind. In this case, I would have to assume that it is.
Most folks I spoke with thought the issue was not wanting to show identification, but that is not the case. I think it's about being subject to a "secret law" and seeing Red Amerika looming in the distance.
