Is the United States a health-conscious nation?

The United States is definitely not a health-conscious nation. All of the fast food restaurants that are around every city and all the ice cream shops downtown are really not good for you. The government is all about making money. With the low economy, money became relevant towards the government because of the economic downfall. The United States gives everybody a choice to what they eat, so what it comes down to is what the person is like or what they would like to eat when hungry. Knowing that, the United States has many different individuals with a variety of personalities, which means the people's health of the U.S. is a dice roll. Almost anything and anyone can become obese from eating to much. Parents letting the kids eat what they want can turn out to be a "big" problem.
