No one is taking adult obesity seriously enough. Doctors are too forgiving, and the medical industry wants fats because more $, so they don't actually cure anyone. Then they let the fat reproduce, starting the whole cycle again. I have a feeling that soon all the fats and unhealthy ppl in general will just die. The way we're living is not sustainable, especially for fats.

Doubt it. There are more and more pills and procedures to prolong the fats life. An obeast (extreme obesity of over 50 BMI) only loses about 14 years of life, and 30-40 BMI is only about 6 years loss due to fat.

All the insulin and blood pressure pills and shit keep them alive.

What we need to do is make fan not eligible for disability. They their money will dry up.

Nothing makes me madder than seeing a fat person on disability. It's for people who actually need it, not lazy fat degenerates.

You're definitely right about that. As with what I said earlier, as long as everyone is worried about hurt fee-fees, there won't be a change. I saw a post on here earlier that talked about how being fat should be treated like drinking or smoking or doing drugs. I can't remember who posted it, but it was definitely worth the read.
