The scene is repeated throughout Chicago, where fast-food restaurants are clustered within easy walking distance of elementary and high schools, according to a study by Harvard's School of Public Health. The researchers say the pattern probably exists in urban areas nationwide and is likely contributing to the nation's obesity epidemic.

Meh.

Schools are normally on busier roads. Busier roads are normally where fast food stores open up because it provides more traffic. More traffic produces more customers. More customers generates more revenue.

Which leads to more fatties that can't control what they eat.

It's not the fault of fast food corporations that people are too lazy to prepare a healthy meal, or just don't care about their health.

I know, I was agreeing with you so people wouldn't take your comment out of context and use it to support their hatred of fast food restaurants.

Ah ok, lol. I guess I just read it the 'wrong' way. Could it be a case of reading comprehension?

Edit: I'm not trying to troll here. It's just a joke. All of you can relax.
