This is a perfect example of how government intrusion creeps and creeps until the next thing you know, they control everything. Sure lets put a tax on soda to make people healthier. Next thing we know, they will be attempting to control the food market and what can be sold in grocery stores. This is laughable to see because they have no scientific evidence to support whether or not increasing the price of soda will curb the consumption by the consumer. I know that I wouldn’t stop drinking my diet pepsi and fresca because it costs a buck more.
This is just another example of the baby steps government takes towards control. Let me decide for myself what I want to eat and drink. Stay out of my refrigerator.
