Before the gov't starts taxing junk food, they should first eliminate the federal subsidies that make sugar and corn so very cheap.

It's no longer your own fucking business when you roll your uninsured fat ass into a hospital because of an obesity-induced heart attack, ditch the hospital because you're unable to pay for the thousands of dollars it took to save your life, and government tax money has to be used to pay for your surgery. It then becomes everybody's business.

sin is what makes life worth living,
he have entirely too much tax for what we get in return as it is.
our culture itself is to blame for the overweight state we live in, everything is bigger, 50oz soft drinks, 3/4 lb cheeseburgers, people are told cutting back in any way lets the terrorists win consume consume consume,
until that changes a tax will do nothing.

I fully support this policy.

I wish the United States would at least put a sin tax on junk food. With the recession, the fact that junk food is typically cheaper than healthy food is doing nothing to help our overweight nation.
