THANK GOD! I'm *NOT* the only person that sees this!!!!

How can something like this be ignited? What needs to be done? Isn't it obvious to everyone? Or is it something that since most people are fat, they don't want it... and since we're a "democracy" that means the fat people will win??? I honestly feel that if you're fat, the doctor should say, look, you have 12 months to lose x pounds. If not, your insurance is going to drop you, or your rate goes from $320 a month to $890 a month. Take it or leave it.
