And you base this analysis on what? How many fat people seen on a bicycle? How many AMERICANs do you see on bicycles?
Do they provide the weight of people who buy SUVs? So how do you know that obese people buy SUVs? I think there is a stronger correlation between income levels and SUV purchase.
Overweight people have enough discrimination to deal with. They don't need to be saddled with blame for environmental damage as well.
And, commenting on the article regarding the productivity of the overweight, I know plenty of lazy, thin people.
