Social Security is the foundation of economic security for millions of Americans—retirees, disabled persons, and families of retired, disabled or deceased workers. About 169 million Americans pay Social Security taxes and 61 million collect monthly benefits. The Social Security Act and related laws establish a number of programs that have the following basic purposes: To provide for the material needs of individuals and families; To protect aged and disabled persons against the expenses of illnesses that may otherwise use up their savings; To keep families together.

We live in a day and age where fat has become the new enemy. Fat free foods are thought to reduce weight? Sugar-Free food us sup
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Sugar

Explanation:

Sugar is worse because it creates unhealthy fat, sugar can decay teeth and increase fat build up. Fat free food doesn't do much for you because you need fat to live, an avocado is made up of fats that are good for you when food is fat free they take out the good fat and the bad fats, type two diabetes is caused by insulin resistance and high levels of blood sugar. Fat build up in arteries can also cause heart attacks, but this is the bad type of fat and is typically from sugary substances like mass amounts of ice cream, funnel cake and bacon. Fatty fish and olive oil are very good for your heart and taste just as good as other foods with bad fats. Sugar creates bad fats and can eventually kill you and is highly addictive and yet we need it to live, sugar can cause immunity problems as well because it blocks blood cells. Sugar can also cause hyper-sensitivity (the feeling when everything is too much to handel or too loud) and anxiety and it leaves you wanting more. So although fat is bad sugar is the true enemy.
