So how is some one using their health insurance costing YOU money? Have you been to the doctor lately? Ever? and did you use your insurance?

Obese people have a much higher insurance premiums, on the order of 10-15% higher. What's funny is that the screening question about height and weight didn't even show up on the application until three years ago. The insurers know what you don't...you're going to have massive health issues as you age that other people won't...
Look at the $250 billion a year on medical costs you all incur. You think all of that is paid by just the obese people?
Look at the $100 billion lost a year in job productivity just from obese people.
Actually I'm going to stop...if you can't be bothered to educate yourself on how big a burden you are on society, far be it for me to try...stick your head in the sand and try to forget what you are...
