People in Alabama who have excess baggage listen up: There's a new legislation that charges you fees if you're overweight! Yes! Just like that! Apparently, they want their government employees to be aware of their health so they are giving their employees one year to get fit or else, they will be charged $25 a month, basically to pay for insurance which is otherwise free.
There is an existing law in the same state that charges $24 a month to someone who smokes and it helped decrease the number of smokers. This means if you are obese and you smoke, you pay more!
Both fees!
