If you think about it, they are. Since evrything is taxed these days, more use = more tax.

I am going to make a blanket thought that you are either NOT FAT or FAT because you eat the heck out of the grocery store.
The world does tax more to fatter people. Let me see if I can explain how:
I am going to eat 4 big mac meals are McDonalds. Ok your tax on one is (in my state) .30. My tax would be 1.20. Now if you buy your jeans at 80 and mine are 180 (ok because i have to look better in mine than you do) I pay more only because clothing isn't taxed in my state.
What is spelled with an H and an A - not an O
I am not concinced that you understand how Chloroflorcarbons and the ozone layer are even connected let alone spell what?

damn right, ever been on a plane and a fat couple get on,it worries you and you want to put them in the middle,one on each wing. obese related illness has overtaken smoking as the biggest burden on the nhs. the weight of fat people could be slowing the world down causing a drag effect and global warming, they produce more litter ie fast food wrappers and many of them have the cheek to wear skimpy clothes putting the rest of us off our food. TAX FAT PEOPLE NOW except john prescott, just have him killed

Or maybe we should have a tax to pay to put people to sleep who come out with comments like that.

Yep and all the anorexics who end up in hospital being force fed to live, and all those who suffer with cancer through smoking that use hospital resources, and all those with mental illnesses, sexual diseases such as aids, etc, etc. Shall I go on. Many individuals are overweight through overeating however many have illnesses that contribute to their weight problem - thought this should be mentioned as it would appear you are not aware of this - sad.

No, I don't think so...they spend more money on food...helping to keep people in jobs - then pay money for diets/exercise videos and stuff like that, and they never use them...so they buy more...etc

No because if you did that youd have to tax people who have multiple babies with multiple partners because that creats a burdon too

How about a "stupid tax" instead? After all, it is stupid people who cause all the worlds ills.

Yeah! Maybe it would stop so many people becoming morbidly obese! I also think they should pay more for their bigger clothes- think about it, more material, more work going into making it, it should cost more!
