Environmentalists frequently scream that there are too many people on the planet, implying some will have to go. We already knows who goes last (environmentalists), but who goes first?
LiveScience has the answer: overweight Americans.

[I]n the United States, obesity is at an all-time high; two-thirds of adults in the Land of Plenty are overweight or obese. Obesity is perhaps the ultimate symbol of resource consumption; it's visible proof that overweight people already has [sic] more than they need — and take more anyway. […] Overweight people create more air pollution than thin people do. It's simple physics: Extra pounds translate into extra fuel in automobiles and airplanes. Extra fuel means increased energy usage, oil drilling, and air pollution.

(Plus you can get more soap and lampshades out of overweight people.)

Isn't it strange that the left is always so worried about their rights being trampled on but they are the first to freely give them up to the government.
