That isn't the fault of fat people. It's the fault of politicians that you support. You are the problem with rising insurance rates because you along with the politicians you support mandate that healthy industrious people that pay for their own health insurance also pay for lazy unhealthy peoples health insurance. In short, fat people aren't the problem, you are the problem.
Taxing junk food isn't going to lower the cost of health insurance or make anyone healthier. It's just going to send more money to Washington for the politicians to flush down the toilet.
No it's not. It's the fault of politicians that someone else supports. The ones who I support didn't get elected because they opposed higher taxes. It's the fat people who won't work and collect government benefits. I can guarantee you there would be less obesity, if government handouts were slashed and people had to go to work or starve.
