It is underway! And you better believe that it has my full support. The "Fat Tax" proposition suggests that if Alabama residents do not shape up and lose weight, they will be subject to an extra $25 on health insurance premiums.
Some angered citizens may object, saying it is punishing those who have these unhealthy genes. Other may view it as discrimination in the workplace. I, however, see this as a perfect opportunity/excuse for the unfit to get fit. We get charged more for having to seek mental healthcare, so how is this different?
Read over the article and see for yourself. Maybe this is what this country needs in order to turn the health of it citizens around. Comments welcome!
