      In fact if you don’t have a substance abuse problem and/or a degenerative brain disease I think they would consider you to be overqualified.

        The Nihilistic worldview is the deciding factor. They believe in nothing, other than their own self advancement.

        That said, there is a seeming correlation between overweight people in the US being Nihlistic as such. But hardly all, seeing as over half of the population is overweight now. Half of white people, equal for men and woman, higher for all minorities, but especially for their woman, with the exception of east asians, which are generally fit.

        It takes an immigrant 7 years on average to become as overweight as the average American.
