Something is aiding the willpower of people in countries skinnier than the US. They move here, they get fatter.

Despite this assistance (or lack of headwind) they seem to do ok.

Every country skinnier than the US is getting faster. Europe is on a linear trajectory upward that hasn't changed since at least 1975. Even the Japanese are getting fatter every year.

But sure, it's a US problem.
