Hi pezz, similar to a gas guzzler we need to tax the obese. One could weight as much as one can afford, but has to pay taxes. A vehicle is subject to a tax if it gets less than a certain number of miles per gallon. This is one of many reasons that you no longer see car manufacturers producing the 1970s gas-guzzling, oil-burning, road-crushing beasts. Similarly, we need to tax the food-gorging obese to stop producing airplane-seat crushing beasts. You weight and height, please? I'm suspecting a BMI approaching 30!!!
