I was intrigued by this article on our attitudes to fat people:  certainly culture has a great deal to do with it, but I am skeptical of the claims that fat and health are not connected:  there is too much support for the connection between blood sugar and obesity, for example, to ignore - as well as the research connecting obesity and certain cancers.

In fact, what this article does not address is the growing resentment on the part of those people who take the time and trouble to maintain their health, against those whom they perceive as too lazy and ignorant to do so and who are therefore are consuming millions in tax dollars  through the Health System.

What do you think?
