Is This Family Too Fat to Work?

Poster kids for the fat bailout, er, billboard kids for the fat bailout, known as "health care reform."

"The Chawners seem like any other family of four. They enjoy watching soap operas in the evening, and daughter Emma,19, and her father like cooking the odd meal now and then.

But typical they are not: With a combined weight of 1,160 pounds, they are all considered extremely obese, with myriad related health problems."

But not all that atypical.

"The family, from Lancashire, England, has also been the focus of heavy criticism, as they live exclusively on $26,000 of yearly, tax-free medical benefits."

It is not just the UK.

It happens in the USA, too.

"In an interview with Closer Magazine this week, Philip Chawner, 53, a former truck driver, claimed that his diabetes was causing him to fall asleep behind the wheel."

That fat people pose a safety hazard, is well known.

Read it all to witness the litany of excuses they and the conventional sick care establishment make.
