by the way, fat , I mean morbidly obese people just goes to show you how prevalent addiction runs in the US.
Because over eating is an addiction and is a very noticeable one.
It's the illness of addiction that needs to be addressed more than anything.
And who is more likely to turn into an addict.

Someone who has received allot of child abuse and I mean that as in neglect, physical, emotional, abandonment, etc.

And what group of people receive more of this treatment, the lower middle class, and the poor.

It's pretty sad but a reality.

And this is not even adding drug, sex, alcohol, love among other addictions so we have a total addicted society where the poorer are it's more prevalent users and as you move up in the ladder, you still have addictions just more refined ones and allot more resources to recovery avenues.
