US health care is already morally bankrupt anyway.
Might as well stop paying for fat people's health care all together. They already know what the problem is.
Making fat people less fat means they live healthier lives and cost the healthcare system less.
At least that's what we think in countries where healthcare is ran for the good of its people and not for some shareholder's profits.
Not necessarily. This is likely a good thing for patients but not a way to save money.
