Although I agree with him, since when has this country not supported the weak far better than it supports the strong.
We have a fundamental of take from the rich, give to the poor.
Help the weak not the strong.
Its called Nanny state, p.c. etc. etc.......
That won't change.

This is something I brought up on HOL within the last year. I didn’t go as far as left to die but I did state about the amount of care being reduced.

Of course if someone has a heart attack then an ambulance goes whatever. But if someone is making a choice to eat themselves into heart disease then if some areas of the nhs are going to have to be reduced this could be looked at.

I included that if there is history of mental illness or depression etc that has led to overeating and obesity then that should be taken into consideration. But it’s the people who clearly don’t give a fvck and then go ‘come on treat me’ after excessive drinking and eating for years then unfortunately some lines are going to have to drawn to treat the unlucky rather than the knowingly not giving a sh1t.

The knowledge is out there now so there’s not many excuses left. The younger generation are actually improving here but of course adjustments to pension age etc is going to change, but all of these ‘tools to do so’ or ‘education’ is losing sympathy.

I’m going to contradict myself a bit with education of children who’ll go onto need care as adults, but again, doctors should be made aware, with records held of children raised in households where obesity has happened as a result of the parents’ ignorance usually.

Seems a bit harsh. What about people who have a heart attack when they’re out jogging? Are they selflessly pushing themselves to avoid burdening the NHS or narcissists who want to show off and so don’t deserve any treatment? Or anyone in a car accident? You should’ve caught a train so you’re on your own.

Eating and drinking yourself to obesity is slightly different because the chance of you becoming unwell and needing care is much more certain than anything else apart from perhaps motor sports or horse events and activity, which I still think is a lot lower down the % chance of you needing expensive health care and the numbers needing it, often because they know there’s no need to be responsible for their own health.

Most of the people entering GP surgeries in the adult age groups before old age are overweight or pregnant or with their sick children. You don’t see many people who look after themselves in there very often.

Or we raise taxes or remove other care for the unlucky. Or both.

Maybe so but there’s also a distinct possibility that 3x gym visits a week will see me needing all kinds of medical treatment as the years roll by.

I'm guessing that you're overweight

Not particularly but that’s the point of the gym visits!

Having a heart attack from leading a healthy life resulting in little or no burden on the system up to that point is far better than leading an unhealthy life placing a burden on the system for a number of years until the inevitable heart attack.

Life is all about choices and the consequences of them
