The best intentions of the USDA and its pyramid turned out to be a diet based on sugar. It is the widespread adoption of this way of thinking that has caused the fatting of America. National guidelines that were created to make us thin and healthy actually made us fatter and sicker.

I doubt that FedGov's medical experts could be that incompetent. If they designed a nutritional guide that led to Americans getting fatter and sicker, then they designed it with that purpose in mind. The expression "fat and happy" comes to mind: fat, happy, and unconcerned with the theft and abuse of political powers.
