Americans are .... SHRINKING !!!
Quote:
Americans shrinking as junk food takes its toll
Poverty and poor diet mean the average US man is getting smaller, while Europeans keep growing taller
...
On the other hand, America has eight million people with no job, 40 million individuals with no health insurance, 35 million living below the poverty line, and a population that exists mainly on junk food. There, the rise in average height that marked its progress as a nation through the 19th and 20th centuries has stopped and has actually reversed - albeit very slightly - in recent years. Many Americans are rich and do well anatomically as a result, but there is a large underclass that is starting to drag the country down the stature charts.
