Some of you have real easy answers when you are talking in general terms. Lets get personnel. I am obese. Sorry if that bothers you. Do I cost the health insurance more than somebody at an optimum weight. Probably. Guess what, I have a wife who was bulimic for over 30 years. She now weighs close to her correct weight, but I guarantee she cost the insurance company much more than I do because of the damage she did to her body trying to conform to societies concept of what was acceptable.
The very idea that some one can set themselves up as the authority as to how someone else should live their lives is repugnant.
