I love to tease the public health nazis with... "On average, fat people are healthier".
Funny because it's true.

> Ultimately, the thin and healthy group cost the most, about $417,000, from age 20 on. The cost of care for obese people was $371,000, and for smokers, about $326,000. And as Kip Viscusi has pointed out, when you add in the costs of the state pensions that those who die young don’t get, smoking and gorging save the government vast sums of money.

Perpetuating the myth that unhealthy people are a financial and social burden. That's wrong because....
* MIND QUAKE: Fat people are 'on average' healthier!! *
Why? Because they clutch their heart and die in an instant. 'Healthy people' drag their boney carcasses from care home to care home for decades. Do the world a favour - grab yourself a beer, a burger and some cigarettes. Knock yourself out; literally.
