Let's see, you fail a weigh in test for 24 straight months in a job that requires physical fitness, and taxpayers are supposed to keep paying you? Notwithstanding the few that are probably "overweight" due to additional lean muscle mass, it's hard to feel sympathy for these guys just because they have a sedentary job. So do most of us in this country.
I will acknowledge that indeed most of the population is fat, but apparently a higher standard is too much to ask.
