There are still more that do not have access to healthier foods and exercise for a myriad of reasons. To say that my comment is completely false is both wrong and short-sighted. There is no "simply stopping being obese by adopting a healthy diet and exercise" for 99% of people that are obese. Ask any doctor, especially those that care for the underserved and lower income populations, and they can fill you in on this if you care to listen to them.
Only those with a woefully myopic worldview will disagree with your points here. "All those people struggling to make ends meet just need to start shopping at Whole Foods and sign up for spin classes!"
