Gets My Goat

These kinds of articles about obesity and the impact it has on taxpayers really gets my goat. Sure, some overweight problems are the result of health issues a person can't control. But more often than not, it's pure laziness and gluttonous behavior that causes obesity.

For example, we witnessed an overweight woman load up on fast food then take an elevator one floor up. She could have easily made better choices in regards to her lunch AND she could have walked up the stairs that were just feet from the elevator. Instead, she shoved the calorie explosion into her mouth, will repeat the action tomorrow, then months down the road she'll visit a doctor for a medical situation that taxpayers will have to cover.

I could say the same for smoking so don't get me started...
