  • Actually, this isn’t totally wrong, even if the comic is obviously a comic.

    Fat people (at least, the ones who aren’t bedridden) DO tend to be pretty significantly stronger than skinny people that aren’t doing enough exercise, and it’s literally for this reason. Carrying all that fat around genuinely does provide some training.

    Don’t get me wrong though, someone who’s doing proper exercise will obliterate both of them, but it’s still an interesting fact.




  • Very informative, thank you.

    You can kind of see how all these problems would compound with each other and make each other worse. Of course people don’t wand to pay taxes to a government that will waste or embezzle their money. But the government does need money to make things happen that might improve the situations of the everyday worker. The government needs competent administrators, lawmakers and judges to properly regulate the private sector, but the private sector can pay a competent person triple what the government pays because the private sector isn’t subject to laws that force them to be ethical.

    Guess there’s a reason that corruption is such a common cause of failed governments.
