There needs to be a GREEN tax.



Anything organically grown, TAX.



Anything environmentally friendly, TAX.



We'd be out of debt in less than a decade if we were forced to use the cheapest means of production and transportation and just went ahead and polluted and ate unhealthy stuff, like we did in the first 2/3 of the 20th century.

I just hate seeing people not caring about taxing soda when half of those roid junkies pop more supplements than a coke ho at a blow party.

They don't 'care'

Doesn't 'affect' them.

Soda is disgustingly unhealthy. Mmm, liquid sugar. Have fun with your diabetes.

From my moral high horse I can proudly state that I only drink coffee, water and beer with the occasional diet Coke or Dr. Pepper.

Isn't beer disgustingly unhealthy too? My beverage habits are about the same as yours replacing beer with rum and whiskey and the addition of citrus juices.

So it's okay to tax those things because they are bad for you?

Oh that's right.

Of course it's okay to tax something bad for you when we have a nationalized health care system.

So lets see here.

How many people drink soda on a regular basis?  I don't know, I've been looking for it, but I'd guess it's over 50%, especially in African American communities.

How many people support the nationalized health care?  I don't know this either.

Imagine the "WHAT THE FUCK " the people that support nationalized health care, and drink soda regularly will feel.

I don't know what my point is so far, but I'm trying to say that because something won't affect YOU doesn't give you a right to force it on somebody else.

So shove that up your moral horse's ass.

I never said one way or another whether or not I support taxing soda. Now as far as beer being unhealthy, I would wager that it is probably good for you in moderation. Not only that but people don't generally drink 2 litres of beer every day like many soda drinkers do.

I love soda pop and drink a fair amount of it.  Problem, though.  My body fat is in the single digits, blood pressure is typically 10x/5x, total serum cholesterol is less than 100mg/dL, aerobic capacity is well over 4 L/min., etc., etc.  Am I doing something wrong?


Could it be that lifestyle choices have a much further reaching effect than a couple cans of soda a day?  Will paying a tax on my one vice make me a healthier, more fit individual?  Would that tax money be put to use effectively fighting the obesity epidemic or would it be squandered?

I have already quit smoking because of all the taxes added to the cost. I buy ammo with the money I save not smoking.

I guess soon, i will quit drinking soft drinks and switch to filtered tap water. I will buy ammo with the money I save.

I will be the nicotine fit having, caffeine with drawl suffering dude with the mountain of ammo.

In life two people hold the power, the one who has the pussy and the one who has the money.



The government doesn't care about fatasses or even lung cancer victims, they just want the power over what we do and what we pay.  The more taxes, the more we all have to rely on them for anything.  The smoking bullshit was over that same damn thing.  And I don't drink sugar soda or smoke.  But eventually, it will touch something each of us likes, God help us that there will be no one left to fight or willing to stand up by then.



I like that scene from Deadwood, where ole Powers Booth screams,

This is where I'm making my stand!
