We'd have fat tax brackets so that most morbidly obese people in america would probably be eaten. Think about it? What's more important? Feeding starving children or another morbidly obese person, stuffing their face completely oblivious to their rapidly approaching death?
Why not tax fat people for that many extra pounds? Unless they have some medical condition (not that many people actually do...) they are just greedy and unhealthy right? Shouldn't we try to help these people by taking their money? They'd only waste it at Mcdonalds anyway.
Also with the fatty tax, more people would get lyposuctions in order to save money. :p
We're putting the crunch on smokers, I say we do the same thing to fat people. They bump into you in bars and they get really disgustingly sweaty. I'd take smokers over them anyday, kick em out. I would like to see atleast a few "no fattys" bar just to get the message across.
So is this a great idea or what? With so many fat people (especially in america) it would be a great source of revenue.

I'll agree to an extent. It's not the fat people who should be taxed directly, it's indirect corporation tax, that should affect all those who choose to eat unhealthy take away food. Unhealthy fast food outlets should be controlled and taxed at a much higher rate, or have new 'Unhealthy' Taxes applied. Corporations making billions on the addictive nature of fast food, whilst creating an unhealthy nation, should be the ones who pay the initial burden. Then they can pass this cost, at their discretion, onto everyone that chooses to eat the unhealthy food, be it skinny or fat people.
In the end, skinnies and fatties will realise, the unhealthy option
is not the tastiest option anymore.
