No, I'm going on record to state that overeaters, like drug users, cost you money.

Why are they costing me money, MrLeRoy? Is it too much to ask that we fix that little socialist loophole before adding drug users to my financial burden?

At least, that's the way I'm voting.

Would you also vote to ban overeating---and alcohol, whose abuse also costs you money---if given the opportunity? If not, why not?

No. Would you?

Since these activities are already legal, I would much rather vote to eliminate the financial burden being placed on me by these activities, rather than trying to make them illegal.

I believe they tried that once with alcohol, only to reverse themselves 13 short years later.
