Feds Spend $406,875 Texting Latino Men Telling Them to Exercise



Racist Liberals Target Hispanics

  • Racist Liberals think Hispanics are inferior. Other immigrant groups manage to blend into society, but liberals insist that Hispanics need Spanish-English bilingual packaging, signs and education. 
  • Now liberals must dictate to Hispanics what to eat since they are not smart enough to decide for themselves.


(Washington Free Beacon)  -  The National Institutes of Health is spending more than $400,000 sending text messages to Latino men to encourage them to exercise.
The University of California, San Diego is conducting the study, which is attempting to employ the “low-cost” strategy of using cell phones to reach Mexican-Americans.
“Mexican-American men report high rates of inactivity and related health conditions. The proposed study seeks to promote physical activity among this at-risk, understudied population by developing interactive and tailored text-messages to enhance a print-based physical activity intervention for Spanish- speaking [Mexican American] MA men,” a grant for the project said. “The proposed high-reach, low-cost strategy for increasing physical activity has great potential for adoption on a larger scale and thereby positively impacting public health and eliminating health disparities.”
Latino men “may have limited access to public health interventions promoting physical activity,” according to the project, and there is a “dearth of studies in this area.”
“To address these rising health disparities, effective interventions that leverage state-of-the-art technology, theory, and methods are needed for [Mexican-American] MA men,” the grant said.
The project is based on a preliminary study using “culturally and linguistically tailored” print campaigns to encourage Latino men to exercise.
The project has cost taxpayers $406,875 so far.
