Trying to convince me that a 400lb uncle Sam with neck rolls isn't that big, because there are other people in Walmart over 500 pounds. Isn't exactly the ideal way to convince the USA that uncle sam wouldnt be healthier if he lost 75% of his morbidly obese excess fat.
The US government is actually on the smaller end of things in comparison with to other countries. Sure places like India and Afghanistan have smaller governments but they also have a lot of dysfunction.
