I am a bit under 5’. My doctor has me down as obese, and I raised hell. She told me that according to the charts, anyone with a 30 or over on a BMI must be marked as “obese” even if they are short and have a large frame (big bones). The shorter you are the more discriminating is the BMI.I would have to be the size of a stick or small boned to be normal. This is something I can’t help. We have a right to eat too, and we get just as hungry as everyone else :(.
I guess we are supposed to pay for everyone else’s surgeries, but not our own. What about those that must have that by-pass surgery?? They are between the devil and the deep blue sea. Or those with heart problems should take 50 laps around the wellness track. I tried that, it doesn’t work. How tall are you??. It’s hell for me to maintain 140-150 lbs. But it’s ok for others to weigh more with a few more inches.
The idea of a 500lb fatso getting an electrical reward for stuffing boxes of Twinkies into his cart is quite compelling. But in reality, the liberal attitude toward fat is to make fat people a special protected group. Just like gays and lesbians.
It’s more than the electric carts. When the people that need the assistance are being called upon to wait for surgery procedures based upon their weight, while accountants are determining if the procedure is financially worth the trip, then there’s a legitimate problem.
This is a perfect display of the death panels talked about by such people as Steven Rattner, the President’s former [and failed] Car Czar. He wrote an op-ed in the New York Times that not only admitted death panels were a part of Obama’s treacherous legislation, but the rationing of health care was essential.This panel was called the Independent Payment Advisory Board [IPAB] He further stated that unless we start allocating health care resources more prudently — rationing, by its proper name — the exploding cost of Medicare will swamp the federal budget.
There are recorded cases of the criteria being used by doctors based upon their ability too determine the rationing of healthcare by the government since 2014. And because of what’s in the bill, and according to Betsy McCaughey, a columnist for the Washington Post, it is part of the procedure for anyone to have been on medicare to have a required counseling session That Will Tell Them How To End Their Life Sooner.
So, it is more than obesity. It just starts there with the refusal of services. And it is more than a cart thing or a parking thing as the public has been deceived into thinking that “those people” are the problem. But I can tell you if the doctors were paid to do the services by the government as promised every time, and the feds were’t trying to control your healthcare as just another thing they can do to control you, there wouldn’t be a discussion on it. And people wouldn’t be being prepped to die for their power.

Just look at these fat sh*ts chuckling and laughing as they wallow in gluttony. And then they want to be first in line when they need medical service.
And blame Obamacare "death panels" when they aren't.
