A lot of this stuff is getting out of hand IMHO. There's way to much "policing" going on regarding what people do with their lives.
I saw this morning they are thinking about putting a fat tax on soda that is not considered diet. WTF where does it stop. Yeah lets go after some of the few industries that are doing ok in this economy
Juice also=liquid sugar, and is also linked to obesity.
Then again, eating is linked to obesity. All food should be taxed with that logic, huh?
THey should probably ban water outright, too, since it's the leading cause of drowning.
Don't give them any ideas
yep a "new -- GAS tax too --- especially imposed @ Tex/Mex restaurants to be called the BOOBA bag tax
Reminds me of the Beatles song "Taxman"...
I put alot of work into staying in shape and I feel like I should be rewarded for it.
Maybe a tax credit for each pound under as opposed to an extra tax on pounds over?
