Great example of how knowledge does not change behaviour. Behaviour change is much more complicated. So whenever you hear politicians say that we need to take more responsibility for eating healthier, exercising more, or saving for retirement, understand that this is just a way of shirking the social responsibility of giving people contexts for better decision-making (i.e. education, affordable food, affordable housing, better wealth redistribution, etc.).
