People are just making excuses for not doing for themselves, that's all.

If you don't know the basics you have a moral responsibility to learn the basics. It's part of being an adult. But American culture discourages people from pursuing maturity and enables them to do dumb shit like live solely off of processed foods. And it's able to do that because most Americans don't want responsibility. They want their lives lived for them and corporations exploit that.
