Education can only go so far... When liberals try things like soda taxes, conservatives get mad. What other solutions are there?
Do you think people are so stupid that they don't know cigs, fried foods, and ice cream is bad for them in large quantities right now?
Then you want to fix the problem by govt. taxing more.
Didn't govt. 'fix" the coal miners? Didn't the president brag about running them out of business? And now we see the result, a coal miner going on Medicaid to get medical treatment.
Maybe the govt. can raise taxes on soda so soda companies can lay off workers and that way we'll have more people dependent on govt.
Isn't that the cycle we see now?

It's not about what I think... It's what the data shows. A whole lot of people simply don't know.

Or maybe they can innovate and make a profit in other ways. I read that bottled water is now the largest profit center for these companies. They will be ok.
