TRANSLATION: He made our food cheaper with no thought to the consumer.

I happen to agree whole heartedly with that qoute you gave. He was an excellent business man. And the reason I see nothing funny about his death is that his heart attack had nothing to do with the McDonalds food, nor do I consider McDonalds evil in any way. He just ran a business, one that sold a cheap (both in quality and price) food to many, many people.

Edit: to the people bitching about the ad campaign thing, okay fair point there.

Horrible, life-sucking crap food that's played a major role in turning the North American culture into one of diabetics and obesity.

I have too low an opinion of anyone who lets themselves get like that that way.

To me the greatest mystery in life is how can someone step out of the shower look in the mirror and say "hey, I have man boobs" then just keep going.

I do too, but McDonalds made a business out of providing easy, cheap food that makes it all the more simple for weak people to eat themselves into jumbo size. The man in charge of it definently holds some responsibility for that, even if most (read: all) of the responsibility for actually consuming it resides upon the person him/herself.

Usually I smile at a post like this, but I just don't think there's enough in this one. I mean the guy died from a heart attack, and what's so ironic/poetic about that? If he had drowned in ketchup and mayonaise, I might be able to see the irony.

It's not his fault that a large part of the consumers are too dumb to realize how bad McD's food is.

Not that a heart attack is a particularly humorous way to die, but when I do buy the farm, I want it to be really funny.

Well, in all honesty I admit I actually eat it on occasions. But that doesn't mean I believe it's God's gift to physical health.

Sometimes I just get a craving for it, and everytime I've finished a meal (which doesn't take long) I'm just as disappointed as the last time.
