Yeah, this is true of a lot of facets of healthcare recipients who have lifestyles outside the ideal: if you're overweight, that's the cause of your problem; if you're a drinker, that's the cause of your problem; if you're a smoker, that's the cause of your problem; etc. Obviously sometimes that is the cause of your problem, but too often it seems an easy way to dismiss the necessary exploratory work.
Being drastically underweight can make you very ill in the short term as your body just does not have the resources it needs to perform basic functions. Being drastically overweight is not good for you, but it's something the human body seems fairly resilient to.
And the right wing tends to favor doing neither...
Yes. Trying to kick out all the migrants to solve a housing crisis that's caused by privatization of the housing market for instance would be a case of ''addressing instead of solving''. After all you can't solve a crisis by going after things that were never the cause to begin with.
Actual restaurants (over fast food) aren't that much more expensive, hence my Mexican restaurant example. I suck at cooking myself, but anyone can cook some basic things (burgers, eggs, etc.). I do want to get one of those InstantPots but that seems like a bit more work than I want, that's how limited my cooking is that I feel an InstantPot is too much for me. I'm not sure if overall real food is more money. Hell, I get 1/2 pound burgers at the local grocery store for $2.50, you can't get a fast food quarter pounder for that price. Plus, if you're eating real food, you'll be eating less overall food (in weight), that's the main trick. The worse food you eat, the more you need to eat because the less nutrients per weight you're getting. Just think about how much people spend on drinks when all you need is water.
You do realize everything I've said, top experts and doctors have said as well (I learned from them), nutrition is a minefield of misinformation. Medicine can cause you putting on a few pounds but not you being obese. I know what my friend eats (we eat out dinner about 3 times a week) and conversation comes up about this and that over the years and you have a good idea of what someone eats. For example, picking up food from a pizza place regularly because she gets off work late and that's the only place open. She's not eating healthy and blames her medicine.
Food deserts like aren't a thing. I drive through Gary, Indiana pretty occasionally (when there's bad traffic on the usual routes) and apparently just Gary alone has 14 food deserts, that's not true. There's plenty of options in Gary for healthy food. The problem is people don't buy/eat healthy food to begin with and that's why there's less healthy food because it doesn't sell. There's a reason why say Sharks is in Gary and there isn't a Poke Bros there, and it's not like Sharks is cheap either (I do love their catfish nuggets, but only get that like once a year). It's there because that's what food the community likes to buy.

California caused it's housing crisis, everything to do with democratic laws/policy. But no, it's the republicans fault that you can't build houses in California.
I wasn't talking about California and the Democrats cannot possibly have implemented laws in a country where they do not operate in so I wouldn't know.
You did say that American republicans and republican voters are all racist, that is such a ridiculous statement.
I did indeed state the contrast of them embracing those traits rather than shamefully trying to hide it and play victim like their European counterpart yeah. I mean at least its more respectful then someone insisting he deliberately voted for the racism party but demand we pretend every reason except racism is why he voted that way.
Their leadership certainly doesn't seem to agree with you there. From Nixon's ''Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did'' All the way to Trump's ''They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people''
That left wing parties claiming they want to solve economic woes and then driving their economy into the ground isn't a selling point.
I dunno. If your faced with a housing crisis for instance then the Left's idea of just building more houses seems a much better selling point then the right's idea of kicking out some brown people and hoping for the best.
I wouldn't like to cook burgers every day, because I don't eat them every day. Yes, you can likely cook steak, eggs, and bacon.

Lake County Eats Local brings awareness to food deserts in NWI
If you place your finger on a map of grocery stores within Northwest Indiana, you may find that you cannot touch one within a mile radius. Donna Catalano, community development director at Legacy Foundation, shared how this is considered a food desert. “Lake County currently has about 27 food...Food deserts not to blame for growing nutrition gap between rich and poor, study finds

Firstly, that quote comes from someone bitter and betrayed by Nixon so it could be true, it could not be true. Nixon also very much did despise drugs so there is that. Secondly if true, Nixon was targeting those against him, which were blacks and the anti-war left (not blacks). Thus, it wasn't that he was racist and thought blacks were inherently bad or lesser, it was they weren't too big on him. And every president since (democrat and republican alike) has found the war on drugs equally useful for one reason or another. In another example, there's more school segregation in democratic areas because of the difference in how the most north and south states do school districts; in the south, districts are comprised of counties (that are more diverse); in the north, school districts are comprised of smaller municipalities (which aren't very diverse). If republicans really hated blacks, wouldn't they change school districts to be like the north if they really wanted segregated schools because that's a super legal way to segregate schools? This blanket claim that republicans are racist and their voters are racist is just very surface-level stereotype with no nuance at all.
