203. How does it hurt
Your over eating and packing on the fat along with the rest of the country causes many many health problems. Heart attacks, strokes, mobility issues and the list goes on. All of the overweight people have to be treated for overweight issues which causes the rates of insurance to soar which in turn causes me to not be able to afford it so I get to die in the waiting room of a county hospital waiting for a doctor to treat me while all the heart attacks and breathing failures and whatever else is being treated all because of the populations inability to say no to krispy creams. Trust me, it hurts others daily.

Now, is obesity the ONLY thing causing insurance to go through the roof? No. But it sure is way up on the list.
