Punish people for their flaws and make money doing it. It’s the liberal way.

So who do you think should mandate how the airline structures their pricing?

Cost for freight shipment is directly related to package weight.

Same goes for passengers.

I'm all for letting the market handle it.

"Academic calls for pay as you weigh flight fares"

If the brothels adopt the inverse I could probably live with it.

I am getting a little tired of this discrimination of heavy people.

First we have the Wide Load Michelle trying to tell us how to raise our children. Then we have CVS telling their employees what to do and how much to weigh, then we have Doctors required to pimp on us to the Govt. in Obamacare.

We cannot discriminate against illegals, minorities,Muslims, gays, or idiots, but it’s fine to crap all over heavier peopl. The hell with that.

no you pay your own freight -— it’s the conservative way. Theoretically I have no problem with fat people paying more if they are costing more. I just do not see a way to carry it out. They are going to weigh people? Assinine. In the real world it will never happen.

Based on this logic, shouldn’t homosexuals pay more for medical insurance?

No. The REAL liberal way would be to prohibit an overweight person from flying until they reduce their weight to a government approved level.
