Six (television business) reasons the government wants us to be fat.
No commentsBy R.I.Chalmers
It is a shocking and surprising fact that the government actually wants us to be fat. If they did not want us to be fat, there would be more government gymnasiums, a ban on unhealthy food, and a greater emphasis on sports at school. There are six important reasons why the government wants us to be fat.
Reason One: Life expectancy for fat people is significantly reduced. With more obesity related deaths each year the government needs to find much less money to cover its pension commitments.
Reason Two: Fat people consume more. Consumption provides the government with income on the form of tax revenue. And it is not just food. Anyone too fat to walk must rely on a car and needs a secure source of petrol. Petrol is heavily taxed. Also, those dependent on petrol to get around are less likely to voice their opposition to dubious foreign policy decisions if they guarantee them a supply of petrol.
Reason Three: Fat people are more controllable and less likely to rise up against the government. Anyone slumped on the couch with barely enough energy to make it to the car park is not likely to be seen manning the barricades. Not that they are going to be objecting to any tanks around the globe if they can be sure of being able to keep their petrol tanks topped up.
Reason Four: Its official, fat people have more illnesses. Obesity-related cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, osteoarthritis and more are a direct result of being fat. For the pharmaceutical companies this is a source of ever increased profits which they can use to “buy” governments.
Reason Five: Fat people are unfit people. Unfit people sit at home watching television. Television is the biggest single source of advertising exposure of all time. More than half of all advertising is delivered via television. The more television a person watches, the more advertising they are exposed to. Every advertisement is aimed at convincing the viewer that they, their life, their body, and their relationships are not good enough. The result of all this advertising is personal dissatisfaction and the belief that buying something can create happiness. More tax revenue for the government.
Reason Six: Fat people are less happy. They are less happy with many aspects of their lives. Because fat people are less happy, they are more prone to the jealousy that advertising promotes. Unhappy people buy more stuff that they do not need in order to feel happy. This often results in debt, and debt is the slavery of the rich. It is also makes people afraid and frightened people are easier to govern.
Six reasons to go against the government.
Isnt it time you took back control of your life? Isnt it time to lose that weight and rediscover your fitness and energy?
Most of the benefits of losing weight are the opposite of the reasons that the government wants you to be fat.
Reason One: Your life expectancy will increase and you will have more days available to spend that hard-earned pension.
Reason Two: You will consume less. By being fitter and healthier, you will find yourself walking more and using your car less. Your reliance on petrol will diminish and you will be more likely to be more critical of your governments actions and decisions.
Reason Three: You will be more in control of your destiny. You will have the energy and the drive to voice your own valuable opinion about the things that affect you and your loved ones.
Reason Four: You can look forward to having fewer medical problems. Fewer medical problems mean more time to do the things you want to do in life. Living to 90 is not much fun if youre confined to a hospital bed.
Reason Five: With your new-found energy and with more time to make good use of it, sitting in front of the television will not seem quite such an attractive option. With 50% less exposure to advertising, your general satisfaction will increase and you will be less inclined to buy things that you do not need just to make you happy.
Reason Six: You will be happier than you have been for a long time. You will be happier with all aspects of your life. Your burden of debt will decrease and with it your fears for the future.
You can start taking control of your life today. Make a positive decision to stop being what the government wants you to be and start being what and who you really are.

Cable, Satellite, Or Antenna which is better?
By Virgil Morris
High definition television is the newest revolution in the technology for watching television. However, understanding the difference between the current system and high definition television is important. The difference is the resolution; the quality of high definition television is 5 times better than the usual DVD. The minimum resolution for HDTV is 720p but better should be 1080p. Furthermore, the HDTV requires a Blue Ray Disk player and Blue Ray Movies to take full advantage of the better picture quality. Older movies can’t give you this quality because of the cameras that were used at that time they made the movie were not HD and it is not just because of the type of television that gives the resolution of HDTV.
High-definition television is fantastic if the system to support it is present. There are actually three different options to choose from when deciding between cable or a satellite system. They are obviously cable, satellite, and the old fashioned TV antenna.
Cable depends on whatever local cable company provides in the way of high-definition channels. Some cable companies only offer a handful of channels that are available in high-definition and there is an extra charge for this service. On the other hand, one big advantage for cable is that there usually isnt an extra charge for the local channels and most of them are now available in HD.
With satellite systems a huge factor to be considered is the cost of the equipment that is needed. Like a HD receiver is needed to be able to view HD channels. Also, with satellite there is an extra charge for local channels.
Lastly, the older TV antennas more or less snatch the signal out of the air. Consequently, when an HD receiver is hooked up to a regular television it will pick up local channels in HD. This saves a great deal of money and with new services like Blockbuster All Access or The Movie Download downloading or renting movies is a nice alternative
In a nutshell, High-definition is the future of television and the benefits of cable is there is no more equipment to buy and the local channels are included. The benefits of satellite are that there are many more channels, but there is an extra fee for the local channels. The benefits of the TV antenna are that it is inexpensive and the local channels can be watched in HD.
