Yet another social experiment by the government. When are they going to stop??
I don't mean to be tight but what's in it for me? I am not overweight but I am a taxpayer, just because I have what they deem a normal BMI, does this mean that I have to pay for an obese person to lose weight?
If the government were serious about the obesity problem then they would employ what I call the Mac Tax and inflate the prices of ready meals (many of which have been shown to be bad for you), kebabs, junk food outlets, crisps, cakes, sweets etc and reduce the prices of fresh fruit, fresh veg, fish, lean meat. The tax from the junk food could be used to subsidise our farmers and make the fresh food cheaper...
