I wonder where all that moola went.<br /><br />The thing about a fat tax is that it basically becomes a sugar and/or Macca's tax that unfairly targets everyone. Some fatties also have diagnosed glandular disorders.<br /><br />The problem this creates is that true face-stuffers will be singled out, which in this age of PC-ism is too immoral to contemplate, but cigs and booze are bad, m'kay and therefore the PC brigade say nothing like the cowards they are.Olaf Koendersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32538379.post-14795952258173440402016-10-05T22:35:36.714+13:002016-10-05T22:35:36.714+13:00This is called equal opportunity after all they ha...This is called equal opportunity after all they have been persecuting those who partake of alcohol or smoke for years about health outcomes when they have contributed more to the health system than benefits they have received for decades. It is is only fair to establish a fat tax to balance the health expenditure these people create. As an ex-smoker who likes a tipple in Australia I am sick and tired of subsidising other peoples vices like morbid obesity and illegal substance abuse who get a free ride in the health system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32538379.post-6737438607730133932016-10-05T20:16:04.176+13:002016-10-05T20:16:04.176+13:00Exactly guys.

I strongly suspect that the vast majority of those "overweight" people are actually in ideal health because that is the weight their body is maintaining.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32538379.post-14479369913867188022016-10-05T02:21:14.780+13:002016-10-05T02:21:14.780+13:00The PC nonsense knows no limits on just how rediuc...The PC nonsense knows no limits on just how rediuculous and idiotic it can getBird of Paradisenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32538379.post-35768489282643742772016-10-05T01:57:27.224+13:002016-10-05T01:57:27.224+13:00The article does not say if the man was fat.
