OBESITY in the UK (FAT)     

ebboarecrap - 12 Jan 2006 23:27

It sickens me to walk down my local high street these days.

Pavements full of obese swines who have no pride in themselves.

This country is heading for a major crisis mark my words.

I had the misfortune to walk down Abergavveny high street the other day and talk about slobs..hundreds of the buggers.

Income tax should be charged on a sliding scale based on ones weight in my opinion.

Fat buggers therefore pay more as they are more of a burden on the health service.

Before Ian intervenes on the fact that this thread is not apparently linked to any investment topic,let me introduce a question. What about the role of anti-obesity drugs. I think Alizyme (AZM) were at the clinical trials stage on some. Maybe we could point their R&D team in the direction of South Wales...if we could only persuade the local council of let's say Merthyr Tydfil to start adding test chemicals to the water supply or doctoring the chilli sauce at the local Kebab-O-Rama. Let's face it, it would be far more humane than animal testing. I'm going to contact their investor relations hotline.

This thread should not be pulled.

Its a very serious subject and some medical firm could make a fortune over obesity.

And it stops everyone putting all the blame for NHS costs on poor defenceless smokers like me.

fsainaction - 13 Jan 2006 19:33 - 18 of 34

explosive - 13 Jan 2006 19:38 - 19 of 34

AdieH - 13 Jan 2006 19:44 - 20 of 34

Lol, its turned into a joke thread, thats cool, anyone got any jokes reference skinny people...

explosive - 13 Jan 2006 19:46 - 21 of 34

I find them annoying too, worst kind are the ones with it all hanging out on display, followed closely by drivers, if they squeeze their car into the space next to yours you can guareete to hit your car with their door getting out.

hewittalan6 - 14 Jan 2006 10:32 - 26 of 34

GROSS

pipeman - 14 Jan 2006 15:24 - 27 of 34

I think we should put the blame for all our fat people on the yanks we eventually
copy everything that they do. I spend a lot of time in france and you hardly see any fat people except in the tourist seasons

skinny people LOL

joeyjoneslegend - 15 Jan 2006 20:38 - 29 of 34

This is not a laughing matter.

Obesity will place major pressures on the NHS in the years to come.

Some of the kids were I live are right fat bastards who get driven everywhere by their fat parents.

joeyjoneslegend

Then go private.

joeyjoneslegend - 15 Jan 2006 20:56 - 31 of 34

Why should I go private when I have paid tens of thousands of pounds of tax ?
