Why not every product that has caffine, and soy and I'm sure someone believe that "fake" sugar is healthy because its in diet foods.
Health can be defined in alot of ways and who and or WHAT is considered FAT.
5 lbs, 10 lbs 2lbs. overweight. Or just tax food because you think that will "solve the problem" of fat people and or people who make a choice to eat something that tastes good.
I think all fat people and alcoholics, drug addicts should pay a premium for their health insurance. I like the discounted plan proposal for those of us who can have a yam for dinner and be happy.
Wouldnt this help our economy? Less health care, less weight would equal less energy usage. Just seems to make sense to me? Any ideas?
This is too easy to make fun of so I'll give an honest reply;
No, taxing fat people is not a good idea nor will taxing them help the economy.
Again just like any other bill brought to congress it would only allow our government to say who is and who isn’t fat. Therefore a 30-year-old man at 6” tall and 185 lbs would be considered fat thus allowing more taxes into the government system; which I’m sure would find a way to use this money to bail out failing fitness centers (with political ties) across the land.
Although my post holds a certain amount of sarcasm it also holds a certain amount of truth.
A large portion of obese people are this way do to poor parenting while some have real medical problems. I’ll take the conservative way out again and say if you’re a fat-ass do to feeding your face without regard to health then your undesirable body is your punishment. If this post bothers you then go get a “Happy Meal”.

Thank you for bringing up the fake sugar subject.
High Fructose Corn Syrup the wonder ingredient. The more you ingest the more you want. I encourage everyone to read the effects of HFCS on leptin.
We help the sugar industry by keeping foreign imports of sugar high through tariffs. Companies use HFCS instead of sugar to keep the price down. This is a contributing factor to the over 30 percent obesity rate we have in the U S.
Over 30 percent lmao. Personal responsibility goes a long way.
Fat people should have to pay a bigger tax, but increasing taxes would drive those teabaggers crazy, as most of them are very obese.
I don't have any other word to describe this post other than "Moronic"
I would like to see a bit of proof of that to and we won't see any because the poster can not come up with any proof to back up that absurd statement.
Hey I found another word to describe that post.
Well the vast majority of video and images of teabaggers show some very fat people. I also saw some teabaggers teabagging in Austin and DC and I would say at least 75% were obese/fat.
