It's all about guilt. Smokers and overweight people are supposed to be that way because they lack self control, so they are easy targets. "Just throw those ciggarettes away." "Just don't eat as much."
The people that say those things think it's just that easy, but they're wrong.
I suppose they'll start on people with large noses or wrinkles next. "Just get plastic surgery." Or bald people "Just get a hair transplant."
Sheesh, why can't some people let people that don't look or act exactly like them live in peace?

Society has been down on fat people for while. It's easy to strike at insecurity. That's why the weight loss industry is a multi-billion dollar a year operation.

Well, it's a fact that obese people are unhealthy. It should NOT be accepted into society.
Besides, I don't want to be paying for the medical bills, disability, etc., etc., of the obese when it's their lack of self discipline which got them there in the first place.

Well in this dictatorshiop country (USA) They are and will make more laws stopping you from doing more things. BUT its about the money? I don't agree with that. And my reasoning is THEY have LOST SO much money from the lose in taxes from tabacco. OH the governemnt is going to get their money, so to all the NON smokers out there SUCK IT UP, I DON'T want to hear it when your taxes go up.
