What is most digusting of all, is the fat population is ruining everything for those of us who are NORMAL.

What happens when you make a MRI tube bigger? The diameter increases.
What happens to those of us who are of NORMAL size? We get further away from the actual scanner (In a MRI you are suppose to be a tight tube with little extra space around you.) and this results in a lower quality scan.
What does this mean? Because of the population that cant take care of them selves they are in turn killing (or at least hurting) those of us who do. You know damn well hospitals wont be able to afford to have a normal person MRI and a fat person MRI.

I find it pathetic really.

I'm with Infinite_Loser on this one... doctors just should help them lose weight, not pretend its not there and make the machines bigger.
