So the class divide is this.
Think about obesity and junk food.
20th century comes, food's everywhere, junk food's everywhere.
Then eventually we have a movement to sort of stop eating junk food.
Okay, what's the class divide?
It's upper-class people, college-educated people, they're trying to eat healthy, they're trying to avoid junk food.
Working class, lower class people are not, they're not in that.
There are also financial constraints.
And so obesity, which used to, or heaviness used to be a sign of wealth.
You could afford food.
But since the 20th century, it's a sign of class.
Wealthier people are thinner.
They're able to avoid certain vices.
So that's what we learned from the 20th century.
Exactly.
There you go.
There you go.
So the rich can do all sorts of things to protect themselves and their kids, and the poor have fewer resources and are not as likely to respond to those health messages.
