Highlight the negative health consequences then let the chips fall where they may.

Soda is no worse than drinking juice, OJ, Sweet Tea etc.

This is all true but people still think a big glass of Tropicana every morning is part of a well balanced breakfast.

It won't be nearly as hard as figuring out a way to get people to worry about themselves and stop living in other peoples lives.

And no, If every person on the planet were suddenly healthy and perfect specimens to look at your insurance premiums will not go down.

Insurance is a FOR Profit business.

I think pressurizing the cans to 150 psi would work.

Do you disagree with his post or are you just looking for some hypocrisy?

And you can make the same profit with less revenue if you have less expenses.

Why can't the fatties drink Coke Zero? It tastes just fine to me and isnt 240 calories worth of sugar....in fact it is 0 calories worth of sugar. I don't do sodas often, but Coke Zero seems like a great substitute when I do.

The same people who mostly buy sodas are likely the same people receiving government money. So you're taxing the money given out through tax. Kind of insane.

Yeah, ingesting a bunch of shite made in a lab seems like a great substitute

It's a free country. Maybe they're happy being fat. Let them make their own choices.

It must suck to be so ignorant that you value instant gratification over lifetime health and wellness.

I have never even had a soda. Back in the day I did used to drink Cokes. All kinds of Cokes like Coke, Dr.Pepper, Sprite etc. But never soda. Now I don't even drink Cokes. Just water, alcohol and coffee.

Don't make me pay for it and I'm fine with that.

It's obvious though that a happy and healthy society creates more value for its citizenry. But frick it who cares if 60% of the country is fat and useless
