I think it's ok to say that a group of people are a drain on the health system, but I am getting the message that you want something done about that because they are a drain?

Do you know what that would mean in a society? That would have a serious impact on basic human rights and it wouldn't stop with obese people, if something is done in a society then that guideline of that decision is taken into everything. We would all be modeled and supervised into being the ideal non draining human.
