re: dims want a lot more of this type of taxation ...

Sure, rintin, let’s tax French fries.

Anything with that exceeds the calories and bad fat ration like French fries should be taxed. The money should be put into programs that exclusively educate the public on the dangers of eating these types of foods, as well as what to eat.

The fatties will gladly pay extra to get at those fries. I imagine it will only take a generation or two to thin the herd out before these companies go out of business and the majority of the population isn’t obese.

I understand you like to imagine that people are smart enough to think for themselves. I guarantee you the majority of the conservative posters here are obese, which 1) proves they really are idiots, and 2) they are the cause of healthcare costs.
