When Gomoho mentioned that there are many other medical expenses that we as a nation are paying for that we may not be on board with personally, you considered it a 'change of topic'. (I agreed with Gomoho, by the way)
It's NOT a change of topic, if your beef is about footing the bill when you don't want to. (your rights being trampled)

Nice try but your argument doesn't hold water. The focus of this thread was on the recent news about New York City and soda consumption. Not abortion or anything else. And I didn't intend for it to go nation wide either.

o be honest, over time in reading your posts (here and in other threads you have generated recently), the message I get is that you really have distain for people who are fat. To focus on this brings more of it to your attention and you bang your drum and push against it and get your innards in a twist.

Sorry, wrong again. When I was in high school my best friend was obese and he was one of the greatest friends I ever had. And when I moved to The Villages my obese neighbor became one of my best friends.
By the way, one of the rules on this board is to avoid personal attacks. Attack the subject, not the person.
