Any views?

LoL subhanallah well if people aint motivated by the helth risk then I don't see money doing it, but I bet it'll work if they made it a huge amount of money and imposed a ration system.

I thought it would be good but then I was worried, you here about people that cant loose weight or are just fat, I mean I really used to dislike big people, specially cos I take the bus and they always seem to sit next to me and although I pay a full fare, i get half of the seat while they pay one fare and get their seat and mine.

but I think i've learnt to be more tolerant, in the sense that, some people are just fat and cant help it.

Rubbish! There just lazy, and cant be arsed to go to the gym. So many over weight people think by just going on a diet will lose all the weight and it never works, they need to get down the gym.

In saying that many fattys seem to be embarrassed about going to the gym because what others might say, trust me if your fat and go to the gym all people are think about you is “good on ya” or “at least their trying” unlike what people will think when they see over weight people queuing in burger king! :grumbling

I used to wonder why fat people don't just slim down, but i've realised that some people just can't. And so i'd rather be grateful to Allah for being not being fat than for making fun of fat people.

Nobody "cant just slim dont" everyone can if they try harder, if they got up and moved. A person might be "thicker" than the next but no one ever has to be fat.
You just need to eat properly and treat your body like its supposed to be treated then you wont be fat. The tax sounds like a good idea.

What illness? The only illness that could make one fat is a mental one.

No illness makes you gain weight, in fact illness makes you lose weight in most cases.
 
^people get sick because they dont take care of themselves, then they go to pills and sometimes those pills make them fat. That happened to my friends mom. It was teh side effect of a drug she was taking :X
TAke care of yourself and inshaAllah you wont get sick. Then you wont have to eat all those poison drugs.

ASS SALAAMU ALAYKUM

FAT-TAX!!...This would'nt be such a good idea!!...there is actually an illness in where ppl do gain weight, i've even seen this occur in children and trust me it isn't an easy thing for them to cope with , especially at such a small age!!

The only illness that could make one fat is a mental one.

Astaqfirullah!! :heated:

wa alaykum ass salaam
 
Any idea what this illness that makes you gain weight is called? Because i've never heard of it?

oh and by "The only illness that could make one fat is a mental one." i mean emotional factors such as guilt, depression, and anxiety (which are all mental issues).

Have to agree with you there! How many children are allowed to munch loads of sweets and crisps and do little exercise... loads!

I see more and more podgy kids these days, they eat fast food and sit in a watch tv all day. No wonder there fat! But the parents are to blame for letting them get like that.

Hmm... I seem to remember something where people couldn't stop eating because there body didn't know how to tell the brain that they were full up so they were constantly hungry. Dont know if this was the one you were thinking of? (i still see it as a mental issue though :X )
