Richard Wolff blasts the pizza industry

Arturo Armando
   American are addicted to pizza. Richard Wolff mentioned how the largest pizza purveyor in the United States. Pizza hut donates 99 percent of their political  donations to the republican party. There is no doubt that the Republican party is now the pizza party.Richard Wolff wondered why Pizza Hut and other Pizza chains (Little Caesars, Papa Johns, Dominos ) contribute so much money to one political party over the other.
The Pizza Chains and industry fear they will lose the steady stream of childhood obesity and free access to pizza in the school cafeterias all over the country. Pizza companies are worried about the health goals of liberals to cutting their access and ability to addict kids early in life to a life and future of pizza. Health consciousness individuals and politicians realize that the obesity epidemic in primarily caused by large corporations and their pushing of pizza. Pizza is made up unhealthy cheap food and ingredients where there are huge potential profits in a nation of fat fucks eating this food. Richard Wolff points out these profits are used to keep the health conscious demands quite and not interfere with their pizza contributions to the obesity epidemic of this fat nation. I just loved this particular episode of Wolff talking about pizza. He should of mentioned how the farther away y get from city center these days the larger people get and the more shit run pizza joints you see all over both corporate and family owned. you do not see as many pizza places n the city as you see pizza in the suburbs and the fat correlation is directly tied to the number of places to get pizza The profits of these pizza companies to the Republican party to fight off these health conscious voices and calls to politicians.
 Richard Wolff correctly talked on his podcast how growing concern over pizzas increasing contributions to diabetes and other health related issues this nation faces from all this unhealthy addictive eating of pizza. Schools should not be endorsing so much unhealthy eating on their menus and one of the reasons why pizza has held this power is getting a steady dose of pizza into the pliable brains and tastes of young minds. Pizza corporations are some of the most scrupulous companies out there with their massive contributions to both the political world and advertising plutocrats. There are no corporations in the business of healthy eating and the few as Wolff mentions are small. The giant food companies are basically in the business of pushing bad foods because they are profitable and no their product is best example than pizza.. Thanks to their contributions to society we have enormous tax bills for a health system that is primarily caused from the fundamental of our food distribution and processing system and bad individual choice from food consumers.
