On the 16th United instituted a new policy for obese flyers with three options. First, if the flight is not full - the gate people will try to find a place on the plane with two adjacent seats. Second, if it is full the portly flyer will have to upgrade to First or Business - with wider seats. If that does not work they will get bumped.
CNN carried a story where some of the commentary talked about "civil rights" and "discrimination."
Well as someone who flies on United a lot (a 1K Flyer) I say HURRAH! This is not an issue of rights or discrimination it is a matter of comfort for less portly flyers.

I could not agree with you more. I purchased one entire seat, NOT one seat, minus the arm rest and 1/4 of my seat, thank you very much!
