“They may not like it, but I don’t know how our health care system can afford (fat) American’s ‘lifestyle choices’ moving forward. . .”
We are already subsidizing a whole heck of a lot of bad lifestyle choices. Why single out people who overeat?
For instance, people who are underweight are statistically more likely to die young than those who are obese. So we’d best start upcharging the skinny.
There's no money in that racket. Who are you going to sue? Cosmopolitan magazine for putting skinny women on the cover? If you are a grant junkie or activist go where the money is. The tobacco companies are finished. The vultures have already licked the last bit of meat off the carcass. You need a fresh kill.
Can you back up that data?
