Well it would make sense if they only charged this tax to the visibly obese. I, for one, agree with it. Obese people need to feel embarrassed and even ridiculed about their choices. Fucking cows.

I actually like the idea. Fat people are an enormous burden on our health care system, and caring for them is a huge misallocation of resources.

while that's true, there's a much higher propensity for these targeted products to cause obesity.

I remember watching an A&E (or discovery or TLC - not sure which one) show on some 800 pound guy. His doctors told him to eat health stuff like fruit, thought eating 100 oranges a day was healthy just because it was fruit. Dumb ass!
