Thank GOD we’ve sorted that out.
Some of us thought it was Wall Street destroying Amreica. Some thought it was illegal immigrants. Others thought it was moral decay.
All wrong – its fat people doing it.
Fat people, according to this article in Reuters, are a drain on the economy. Let me cherry pick a few of the high points in this insightful article:
- U.S. hospitals are ripping out wall-mounted toilets and replacing them with floor models to better support obese patients.
- The Federal Transit Administration wants buses to be tested for the impact of heavier riders on steering and braking.
- Cars are burning nearly a billion gallons of gasoline more a year than if passengers weighed what they did in 1960.
- the obese are absent from work more often than people of healthy weight.
- Even when poor health doesn’t keep obese workers home, it can cut into productivity, as they grapple with pain or shortness of breath or other obstacles to working all-out.
Sadly, we fat folks disappoint the public health researchers because, unlike smokers, we don’t die off as quickly, reducing the societal burden.
It must be self-satisfying to thin folks to be able to blame our frigging GASOLINE CONSUMPTION on fat people instead of the fact that they all want to drive gas-guzzling SUVs. And of course, businesses are concerned that they won’t be able to work you to death as fast if you’re obese.
What I want to know now is which candidate – Romney or Obama – are going to do something about these fat people.

This is absolutely insane! How cruel!!
You *do* know my commentary is satire, right? This article I link to is cruel and insane.
You forgot to mention that thin people live for ever and never die. They never get sick or have heart attacks, high cholesterol, blood pressure, cancer or are diabetic. LOL! They cannot stop drug use or the drunks so they are going to blame fat people for all the ills of the world.
Feed the homeless to the hungry!
