Are We Headed for Buy-N-Large?

In the movie WALL-E, 700 years in the future, humans float around in chairs everywhere, have view screens right in front of them all the time, and are completely taken care of by a company called Buy-N-Large. because of these things, everyone of them is fat; plus, 700 years of idleness has bred smaller and weaker bones. This might be obvious, but how do you think this speaks to our present state of human-ness, especially as Americans?
