State Media: '"We already have taxes on tobacco. We have taxes on alcohol, which are there for similar reasons because people who consume those products are more likely to end up in the hospital," said MP Marcus Powlowski in a panel discussion with fellow MPs airing Saturday on CBC's The House. "And as a result, we're all going to have to pay for their hospitalization."'
Curiously, extra to violating the Nuremberg Code, Marcus has no problem with the taxpayer having to subsidize the morbidly obese's medical bills, or paying for genital mutilation on the body-dysmorphic, or paying for the costs associated with those who live sedentary lives.
