American obesity rate hits new high

[mrplunkey]

Maybe a weight tax? I dunno.

We're terrified of our latino population voting, and they are 16% of all voters.

Overweight people are 66% of people. Not only will we not tax them. Soon they'll be a protected class that cannot be discriminated against.

I have to wonder if the statistics on percentage of overweight people are even true at all. I used the Federally-approved chart to calculate bmi, and I'm "OBESE"!!!! LOL; obese with 5% body fat, 6' tall, 185 lbs, 31" waist at age 44. There is no way to enter your athletic condition or body composition; only age, height & weight. Probably just another government scam to make everyone obese, so as to get more money from the taxpayers for fat-related health care.

The question that would solve everything, is how to fix people from getting fat?

I agree with trex. At some point it's not about chicken breasts and gym memberships and more about just eating too much and eating when you're not hungry and eating past being full. You can't fix that with healthy eating, you have to address the real reason first.

That would be funny! The big business' would be for this as they make money off the fatties. Big Pharma will make more off the fatties too because of their shitty health.

It will be our reality soon. I laugh when people talk about making fat people pay higher insurance costs or buy and extra airline seat. Mark my words: In 10 years, it would be easier to charge someone of a minority race extra than it will be to charge a fat person.

Just wait till you let a term like: "heavy" in public and people look at you like you just screamed "n**ger".

We'll all have fun with that.

The one flaw in your theory in comparison to gays and minorities is the fact that I don't see these fat asses doing any marching, lol. Maybe they will all take their motorized scooters onto capital hill. Imagine the line at the drive through that day.
