The thing is, if you asked people, they would prefer to be healthy, and not be obese. The environment that they are in just facilitates them making the wrong decisions to acheive those goals. Since obesity is a problem for both individuals and for healthcare in general, I think that we should try to do something about it rather than just sweep it under the carpet.
