People who are a size 28 and weigh a million stone... That in some way or another will probably be their/their parents fault. No-one is born morbidly obese its a lifestyle choice to follow your 8 pizzas and 3 KFC mega buckets with 6 bars of chocolate and a gallon of ice cream.
I, however, was born with large bresticles so I should not be punished with excessive prices for how nature wanted me to look.
But Ive got a size 18-20 friend and I dont really see her as bigger than most. Maybe its body shape. I dont know... Oh I appear to be rambling.

I have big feet and my shoes cost a bit more sometimes and I have to pay more for socks... I didn't ask for big feet but I don't expect anyone but me to pay for their accommodation.
If you want to take the argument back to its most basic level, I didn't ask to be born, so why should I pay for my own food?

but I suppose if you dont eat you will die so your argument will come full circle.
And you dont technically have to pay to eat. Go at it Ray Mears style if you're going to be picky...

Yes... but at that level you don't have to wear a bra (etc) either.
Fact is, saying by nature I am bigger than someone else and therefore require more fuel/clothing etc is unlikely to qualify me for a subsidy in any current society. Do you think we should discount clothing for dwarves?

Even I can fit into them. AND they're cheaper than adults clothes... hmmm

These are rational and sensible responses and should be added to the bible.
