This makes perfect sense. You pay more in health insurance because you're at a greater health risk.
People with disabilities and diseases have to pay more. My dad has epilepsy and my sister`s autistic, and we have to pay more for our family health insurance in comparison to other families because of it.
So why shouldn`t fat people pay more? Makes perfect sense, especially because they`re bringing it on themselves.
(Oh, and I KNOW there are "exceptions" but, let`s face it, most of the obese out there are obese because they aren`t putting forth the effort to not be obese.)

Saragato, you're also 18. Your body can handle obesity now. Wait 10 or 15 years and it will have taken some serious damage.
