Health Nazis

Despite being overweight, Clothilde, 48, considers herself to be in good health and she is scathing of the scurrilous methods of Health Nazis and Big and Little Pharma in their push to prohibit restaurants and food outlets from serving food to obese customers.

"Sure, there are fat people with serious health problems –but no more than thin people with serious health problems," says Clothilde. "Fortunately, my health is pretty good, and if – I repeat, if – I get some fat-related disease in old age then so what?”

“What's health insurance for if not to take care of us in old age, when something or other takes us out?" asks Clothilde. “Nobody gets out of old age alive, fat or thin!”

"I eat out a lot," says Clothilde, "and if some skinny chit thinks he or she can refuse me on account of my size then there's going to be trouble."

"Anyway, all the guff put out by busy-bodying, do-gooding health Nazis has absolutely nothing to do with our health," says Clothilde. "On the contrary, it has everything to do with them feathering their nests and entrenching their jobs at our expense."

“Their methods are scurrilous – and I call them Health Nazis for a good reason – because first they focus negative attention on a target group to garner public support,” explains Clothilde, “and when their lies about health risks have gained enough public disgust and derision they legislate for bans and fines – along with so-called miraculous pharma products designed to change the behavior of the target group."

"Sure, they don't like looking at fatties and talk up big about an obesity crisis," says Clothilde, "but would they – and you, the taxpaying public – really prefer to be looking at Auschwitz inmates and be talking about a starvation crisis instead?"

    pharma pushed fat laws

    Like many western women, Clothilde is overweight. She has tried a variety of diets since her teens – all of which resulted in her gaining more weight than ever –and now that she is 48, menopausal, and totally accepting of her size and personal power she is gobsmacked that legislation is being proposed prohibiting restaurants and food establishments from serving food to obese customers.

    "It's happening in Mississippi," says Clothilde, "but don't heave a sigh of relief if you don't live there because it won't be long before it's happening where you live, too."

    "Take a look at the background of the guys proposing this bill and you'll understand what it's really all about," explains Clothilde. "The three stooges are Representative W.T. Mayhall, Jr., a retired pharmaceutical salesman; Bobby Shows, a businessman; and John Read, a pharmacist."

    "Don't tell me that these guys haven't got a financial motive for pushing this bill?" asks Clothilde. "A pharmacist, a businessman and a pharma salesman together have the requisite qualifications and experience needed to set up and run yet another pharmaceutical business aimed at forcing us fatties to ingest bitter pills rather than delicious food."

    "What are these guys doing in government pushing their own barrow?" asks Clothilde. "Okay, we all know that some politicians are businessmen on the side, profiting from whatever self-serving law they manage to get enacted – or self-serving war they manage to foment – but it really sticks in your craw that such guys get elected in the first place."

    "Hey, people of Mississippi, did these guys tell you what they had on their mind when you elected them?" asks Clothilde. "I'm not just appealing to all the obese voters in Mississippi but to all the restaurants and food establishments, too, because the proposal is that these businesses are going to be monitored for Fat Law compliance by the State Department of Health and violators will have their business permits revoked.”

    “Nasty."

    "I think most fat people are going to be thinking just like me,” laughs Clothilde. “Put us in prison for disobedience if you like – but you'd have a hard job finding a prison big enough for us big people!"
