George Carlin Ranting About Fat Americans
The late, great George Carlin was one of the best stand up comedians ever to rant from an American stage. For George Carlin, no subject was taboo, near as I can tell. In the above video George Carlin gets in some pretty good bits about the American Obesity Epidemic. Ranting about what he calls "Fat Americans."
It comes at you pretty fast, but I think Carlin mentions American's predilection for fast food, for bad food, for not exercising, for waddling through malls, shopping and eating. I do not remember if he gets in a jab at Wal-Mart.
I do remember that Carlin gets in some speculating about some basic aspects of living that come easy to the non-obese, but must be extremely difficult to manage for the extra hefty.
Since it is George Carlin there is a sprinkling of profanity amongst the amusing remarks. YouTube has kindly bleeped them out. For the most part.

I once left you what you referred to as the longest (and probably the only sourced) comment you had received to that date in 2009. If I had not bothered to refer to that comment, would this 'lolz' be the shortest comment you have ever received and thus even it out?
Best regardz to you and yours, nice to see you still, almost solely, calling out truth in the wilderness of weighty American delusions and on topic, Carlin was an insightful, intelligent comedic genius and I enjoyed the clip.
