I am disappointed in your response, Joseph Van Name.

I would like to clarify that I have not taken a position on the issue of marijuana in any of my previous messages. My focus has been on promoting a more inclusive and supportive message when discussing weight and health issues. It is important to address the complex factors that contribute to obesity and to avoid using stigmatizing language and stereotypes.

Your argument that obesity is solely a result of personal responsibility is not only simplistic but also misguided. Obesity is a complex health issue that is influenced by a variety of factors, including genetics, socio-economic status, mental health, and access to healthcare. By reducing it to a simple matter of personal responsibility, you are ignoring the systemic issues that contribute to this problem.

Your comments about Americans' socio-economic status and access to healthcare are misinformed. There are many Americans who do not have access to affordable healthcare, and socio-economic status can significantly impact a person's ability to make healthy choices.

I would like to clarify that I have not stated that going to the doctor is the only way to address obesity or any other health issue. My focus has been on promoting a more inclusive and supportive message when discussing weight and health issues. This includes acknowledging the complex factors that contribute to obesity and avoiding the use of stigmatizing language and stereotypes.
