There is a war in Iraq. There is a war in Afghanistan. There is a war on poverty, there is a war against just about every thing...Take the war on drugs for example its suppose to be because drugs are dangerous and rotting the souls, and killing our population.

I made a statement recently about fast food, killing more people than drugs. So of course in this modern day and age, I did some research on the net.

As it turns out eating fast food twice a week significantly increases your risk of heart disease. It is estimated that 80 Million people in the USA have heart disease. Thats about 20% of the entire population or more. It's true that U.S. heart disease deaths overall are down. From 1993 to 2003, cardiovascular disease death rates dropped to 22.1 percent.(cnn) Its true. heart disease is still the number one killer. Killing nearly 400,000 people in the USA per year. By contrast with Billions of dollars being spent on the war on drugs. Here are some startling facts.

Annual Causes of Death in the United States
Tobacco 435,000
Poor Diet and Physical Inactivity 365,000
Alcohol 85,000
Microbial Agents 75,000
