Let’s be clear, sugary sodas are causing health problems right now.
Exactly this. I hate to say it but candy and sodas need to be taxed like cigarettes. The obesity crisis is very real. Over 70% of adults in the United States are overweight or obese.
Taxes don’t really make people quit. It just makes them more poor. The best it does is over time people stop trying things long enough to get addicted.
