60% Overweight (aka AAFES sucks)

The US Government says that as many os 60% of Americans are overweight. That's a whole lot of ass, folks.
What has gotten my proverbial panties in a wad today?
The US Government acknowledges that americans are not generally skinny people, right? Anything over say- a size 12- is "overweight"
And yet- I can not go into my local Base Exchange (this is a store on base, run and administered by that same government), and buy any clothes that are nice looking or fit right. The "woman's section" (for anything over a size 12) is a tiny back corner of the store filled with 3 racks of ugly fucking clothes. These range in style from "mormon prude" to "African pride"... nothing really in between for the mid-line woman who doesn't do the polka dot dresses ornamented with huge nipple length collars, or Kwanzaa wear in orange and brown lion-king shades.
The intimates section is far worse- I suppose there are no skinny women in the military with big tits? Must not be- as the idea of finding a "D" cup anywhere is insane. If you do find a proper fitting 38 D, it is probably an anomaly; it came as a bonus with their order, or someone ordered it by mistake.
Perhaps this is the government's way of motivating me to lose weight- (and I am working on it... with the impending surgery- things should go much easier afterwards). However- what is wrong with them not hiding us in a itty bitty corner full of heinously blinding ugly clothes I wouldn't put on my enemy?
I am not one of those women who takes to the extreme sides of fashion available to plus sized girls. These two extremes, of course being-
Wear it like you are a size 3- stuff'n'junk hanging out of low cut, short line shirts, paired with brightly colored or printed ugly tight pants- so that your ass and legs look like the hood of a car after an hour long hail storm, and low cut, so your hips look like a marshmallow with a rubber-band wrapped around it. The other extreme are the gals out there who dress in clothes made by Omar the tent maker. Big shapeless dark colored ugly sacks, which gives the appearance of a tomato sitting on a couple of tootsie rolls (at best), or worse, something reminiscent of Macy's T-day parade balloons.
I don't know what makes them look worse- but these woman are destroying my chance to find nice things- I am not asking for much here.
Decent cut jeans, shirts that flatter the figure- show off my fabulous curves without pointing out my flaws- styled, not trendy colors and patterns and... well, you get the idea. God forbid they would have something that may look good on her, but not on me- so here it is in a different pattern, another cut... The clothes they put out for our "choice" is criminal. It's not shopping- it's demoralizing and depressing. I hope I don't need something for an event in a rush- I'm screwed.
I am not asking for a Lane Bryant wing at AAFES, but COME ON PEOPLE
If 60% of us out there are toting some extra ass in our jeans- shouldn't we be at least on the retailer's radar?
