Yes I know where you stand on this, I don't need more information about your opinion.

I asked if you see the conclusion of this view, and if you endorse it.

To be very very clear it goes like this: if poor are fat because they make bad choices and for no other reasons, then you can reasonably conclude that that is also why they are poor. That they deserve to be poor for that reason.

Is that a fair summary of your view?

> That they deserve to be poor for that reason.

Where are they saying that? This entire conversation has no relevance to what one deserves. Causality is not changed by one deserving something.

That's not a fair summary of anyone's view, and you know it.
