People in life never want to accept blame, but the cold hard truth that occurs is that no matter what, people still have to face consequences for their actions. American obesity rates are at record highs and the future is not looking bright. People are continuing to eat, and in bigger portions than have ever been recorded. People don’t want to accept that they became obese at their own expense, so they try to blame the people who supplied them with the food that is connected with obesity: Fast food. The truth of the matter is that people have to stop blaming the fast food companies and start accepting their own blame for becoming obese and trying to do something in order to change the way that they look.

The tint is used to have the American audience connect to the photo and to have them picture themselves in that position. The target audience is Americans in general, especially teenage to younger adults. This generation is one of the unhealthiest eaters the world has ever seen, and they are all too lazy to exercise and do something about the problem, so they are all becoming obese.

It would kind of leave them thinking as they put it down. Furthermore, I made a hashtag that reads “#U-R-RESPONSIBLE-4-U” which is hinting at the fact that no one is to blame except for themselves for how they have become. I placed this carefully right on one of the red stripes from the American flag tint on the man.

The hashtag is placed directly above that so that they will read it as they stare at the butt and it stares
