This is absolutely ridiculous. A bigger t-shirt has more raw material therefore costs more.

That wasn't my point, my point was adult clothing has always cost the same across the board
Have larger clothes all of a sudden become more expensive to produce or has someone spotted an opportunity to make more money based on today's larger society

I pay more per square inch than a person who purchases an XXL does. That's how I subsidise them.
If for example my t shirt costs £5 to make and I pay £10 but an XXL costs £12 to make and they pay £10, that's clearly me subsidising you.

Maybe you should form some kind of little person collective and live on an island away from normal sized people.

You're not subsidising me fella, I buy medium/large depending on the garment
Back to the point at hand, maybe the XXL cost is the actual cost to make but people buying small etc are being ripped off

But you don't, you pay less if you've had less accidents, or are deemed a less risky driver. So that's complete rubbish.
Your argument would only be true if everybody paid the same amount for their insurance.

90% of the time we are all being ripped off, small people just more than others.

I agree with this. People should have their BMI checked as they walk through shop doors, and if it's above say 30 they should be charged more. Likewise, they should have body fat scanners in McDonald's - anyone with more than 25% body fat should only qualify for healthy option meals. I call it the Fat Barstard Tax.
