So does TC think Trump was a great president and is generally a right leaning religious conservative? Thats the vibe I get from him. His care factor for other people is close to zero

are you saying that donald trump doesnt give a fuck about other people?

If you think i want all smokers and drug addicts to die, or I dont care about other people, Im all for helping people get off their addictions but I have a feeling that they would just want to manipulate us into making them think they will quit smoking or their addictions when they have no intentions to.

And after reading stories on reddit where aggressive panhandlers who are smoking rob people, it makes me wonder why should we even be paying taxes to keep these people alive

Not that we should force them to die as they would probably murder in response, but we shouldnt be kind to them either.

Loads of smokers would like to quit though, same with drug addicts. Rehab is a thing

for sure they sincerely would like to quit but some dont seem to put in any effort.

not that all obese people are putting in effort in losing weight but smoking and drug abuse just seems too idiotic.

also, given the amount of panhandlers (especially aggressive ones) who go out smoking after, I wager more people are smoking as a form of partying

This is a weird take that ignores reality

for sure there are overweight people who want to abuse the system, and there are any smokers or drug addicts who dont, but given the amount of education there is on smoking especially in the usa, i wager that smokers and drug addicts are often more ignorant of their choices.

This seems kind of...bizarre. You say obese people generally don't want to be obese, but the rates keep rising and most obese people don't become normal weight. If your issue is that they want to change and are unable to due to excessive compulsions, social issues etc...uh, why is that different from drug addiction...?

im saying that people who are obese would often be willing to change themselves more than smokers and drug addicts.

I dont know why you seem to recognize one harmful thing as harmful but not another harmful thing as harmful.

i recognize obesity and smoking as harmful but one is often shamed by the public and it poses issues such as being unable to fit in your clothes. You also only harm yourself. The other can harm others too (from secondhand smoking), isnt shamed as much especially since people often dont know you do it and is more likely done by people who refuse to listen when you tell them their health consequences

And meat more than once a week? Disqualified! Drain on the system!

If you get 149 minutes or less of exercise a week? Disqualified! Drain on the system!

smoking and drug abuse by themselves will harm you

a slice of cake, piece of meat or lack of exercise wont kill you by themselves

you could argue that obese people should pay for their healthcare but given fat shaming is common enough and the consequences would be more apparent through you being unable to fit in spaces and clothes I dont see any need to damage obese people even more

To everyone who says that smokers pay more for insurance, many people would just beg for money (especially when they are aggressive) or borrow money from others and manipulate them into thinking they will be paid back when they wont.

Forcing people to die isnt the answer but paying more for insurance clearly isnt the answer to make people quit, especially if its sooner rather than later

That shit is a HUGE problem and it causes a whole host of other medical problems while being exponentially more accepted than smoke or drink in America.

probably because while obesity isnt ok, people probably get bullied enough that they want to change themselves more than smokers, and also second hand smoking affects everyone while obesity only affects you

? Exactly how I just said. I dunno what thing that's known to happen you're confused about.

One way is someone is on a prescription, they lose insurance or the ability to cover it. They get cut off, they get withdrawals that can make them suicidal even. So, they seek out drugs that haven't been priced insanely high through big pharma

i just never seen this happen before

_Angel_ posted...
How fat are you, what's your BMI, do you do any exercise, do you do enough, do you make an effort to have friends, to be with family (mental health), what's your diet like etc etc

Now it's a fair question to ask on TC's part but the benefit for all outweighs the sect of people he is describing, and as wasteful as our government is now I don't mind the waste of my dollars if that means the door is kept open to people like them.

I find it disheartening that there's always that mindset of money over people

obesity is obviously a problem but smoking causes more deaths than many other things combined. Its also not possible to not die because you didnt smoke a cigarette but its possible to die of starvation

if you mean people would rather let someone die than pay bills to save their life, Id say theres no point in prolonging your life if you want to keep harming yourself (not that you should be forced to die)
