Then perhaps the 'fatties' more than pay for their healthcare indirectly with excessive VAT payments.If this is so, you should be encouraging obesity!
I DID suggest - in the original post - that we should give them McDonalds vouchers so they can eat themselves to death more quickly (and save us all money in the long run) !
Then that ever-rising £4 BILLION can be spent elsewhere (such as on real illnesses) can't it?

There is something in what you say ... but these things are treated to prevent OTHERS from being infected, and thus stop the spread.
Putting a band round someone's stomach (so they cannot ingest as much) will not make them eat fruit or actually move around a bit, will it ?
