The official method for estimating fraud rates is take a very small sample of claims, review the paper work and conduct an interview. of course this is never going to catch the majority of fraud!

testosterone levels have declined in most developed countries when comparing similar age cohorts over time. See the following studies:
from Finland - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23161753.

people ate loads of sugar before modern processed foods. the consumption of sugar is not something that was forced upon us by evil corporations.
taxes don't make sense because people will just substitute sugary foods for other types of food. isocaloric exchange of sugar for other nutrients doesn't lead to weight loss. so the end result is that consumers pay more for something they enjoy (sweet food and drink) without any public health benefit.
