Oh dear, yes, I have been hearing the knives being whetted. All these carefully timed reports on how much obesity is costing us.
Hmmm, even I have to admit I would really love to hold an auto-da-fe on those misbegotten superobese characters seen on the Discovery Channel shows. Lord only knows how much they cost us.
But then, that’s the reasoning, it’s all for the greater good. Health care for the healthy, the elderly, chronically ill, profoundly disabled are too expensive. Once government is in charge of health care, every sick person is a liability to be eliminated. Everybody who doesn’t lead a healthy lifestyle will not be entitled to care.
Of course, gays with AIDS will be the magical exemption.
