In America, they're an eye sore, and in Europe, they are harming everyone by way of the public health insurance system. Also, I know of a case where a lean person suffered a "travel thrombosis" because a fat person occupied 1.3 seats in a long-distance bus (beside the last free seat), so the lean person had to sit half-way on the seat's edge with one leg. Anyway, the fast-food chains are harming their customers, the other restaurants and the environment, so your "harm no-one" doesn't apply. > The old saw - "If goods don't cross the frontiers, armies will" > is as true now as it was 200 years ago. Yep, because robber-baronism can only be implemented at gunpoint.
