The act of overeating to the point of obesity in a world where poor people are starving makes obesity immoral considering that the morbidly obese are eating excess quantities of food that would otherwise be going to those that are starving. It isn't hard to see that this addiction to food can drive these people further down the path of immorality. As expected there is a well established body of anecdotal evidence about the lengths that our obese friends will go to in order to acquire and consume food that does not belong to them.

Why should anyone who has the means and willingness to overeat be concerned about some poor worthless and ignorant person that doesn't even have the motivation to learn to fish, farm or become a shepherd of sorts?

I personally feel good about myself every time I throw away food that is still good because I know I have the means to replace it.

I am not perturbed by the bone thin 3rd world sloths that cannot scrounge up enough to eat.

How exactly would the food fat people eat have gone to starving people?

fat people should be banned from food banks i say, they're clearly not struggling for food

though this could be illegal so i'd settle for making the doors very narrow

We should have more food banks in more places and focus solely on feeding people not using their appearance to deny service :)
