Society decided it's society's business, due to insurance costs, to 
have laws about motorcycle helmets, seat belts, drunk driving, no-fault 
insurance, and smoking tobacco.  It's well established that, if it 
affects insurance costs, it's in the public interest.  I don't like it 
either but I see no reason why obesity should be exempt.  Americans 
like to tell other people what to do, and are constantly looking for 
any sort of excuse to justify doing so.
