There you be. Make being stupid (low IQ) illegal. That would reduce our population by what, 80%?

Today fat people. Tomorrow, tall people, then short, then those with small dicks, small tits, no ass, poor eyesight, etc. By the end of it all, only Germans would be left. HELLO!!

Come to think of it, Hitler wouldn't cut the muster.
im pretty sure being tall is a plus, not like being only 5'6 is helping anyone.

Anyways I don't agree that Overweight people increase health premiums. You can be overweight and be really really healthy. It's all diet. Carb loading and overweight? Probably get diabetes. Eating a diet full of healthy fats that's high caloric/protein? Probably get fat, but you'll live till your 110.

Look at life expectancy in france or greece. And the older people are not fit at all.

You're getting a thanks when I get back

I agree, but not on the longevity party. How many centenarians do you know are remotely overweight? Calorie restriction theory has its merits.

Calorie restriction has no merits in our 1 million+ year history. Carb restriction sure does though! Especially sugar especially fructose.

good idea.. but won't health premiums rise if ppl become anerexic? But i'm guessing that's rare there.

Japan's life expectancy rates are actually skewed because there are something like 30k 100+ year olds that they can't confirm are alive.
