If Rush really believes what he said, why is he working so hard to save our democratic republic? Doesn't he know that it's in poor health and about to die of old age? The biggest factor, in determining why great civilizations die, is "old age." Doesn't he realize how silly it is trying to have a healthy democratic republic when old age is going to take it from us anyway?
No, instead, he only knows how silly it is for someone to try to live a healthy lifestyle. Why is that? Why the difference between one and the other? My opinion is: Follow the money! He works for radio and radio earns a good portion of its revenue from advertising processed (fast) foods.
Anyone have a comment on that?

I feel that's really a simplistic outlook and a far fetched kind of conspiracy theory. I really doubt he's thinking of his advertisers on this subject. If you've listened to Rush over the years you know he eschews any exercise in weight loss and downplays the importance of it in that aspect. I thinks it's a foolish thing, but he's entitled to live his life the way he sees fit. He thinks genetics play the greatest role in your life longevity, and science doesn't prove him wrong.
Comparing body chemistry to the life of nations? Cute, but hard to portray parallels. Nations have died for many reasons.
