What the fuck does that have to do with receiving medical care? A heart patient pays for medical care and gets the use of an EKG. An obese patient deserves the same level of care.
I guess the oath to heal the sick doesn't matter if that person happens to be big. They don't really deserve to live anyways, they're just weak, right?
- hasenj 10y agoIf the scale exists in the market, there's no reason why she can't buy it. If it doesn't exist, it can't be that doctor's fault. Shifting the blame from oneself into the doctor doesn't do anyone any good. It just wasted everyone's time and makes people less willing to tolerate your bullshit.
- jakebasile 10y agoWanting to receive medical care is bullshit? You are all over this thread throwing around vile "aphorisms" about big people being moral failures and that they "just need to eat less!", as if it was so simple. Your casual dismissal of people's lives is appalling, and your ability to dehumanize others is sickening. I do not blame doctors for my weight. I do blame doctors that do not give adequate medical care to people because of weight.
- Sir_Substance 10y ago>If the scale exists in the market, there's no reason why she can't buy it. Actually there's a good chance that's not true. My experience with specialist equipment suppliers is that they _will not_ sell single units to individuals who don't work in the field, because civilian customers are annoying as fuck, and they choose to keep a clean battle front by refusing to sell to them regardless of circumstance. Your clean view of capitalism is as irrelevant to wholesale as it is to medicine, I'm afraid.
