California City May Tax Sugary Drinks Like Cigarettes

Much like taxing cigarettes. If cigarettes are so bad for the individual (as the government states - and anyone with a fucking brain knows) why is the government in the cigarette business? And try to be honest with yourself - the government is in the cigarette business when they make 20x the profit on a pack, compared to the cigarette company. Taxing soda won't do anything but hand over more money to the government. It won't stop a thing and people know it. Want to stop children drinking soda? then simply make it illegal for them to do so. (Which I don't agree with)

In most cases, making things illegal won't work, as seen with the current dope traffic.

Taxing any irresponsibleattitude should be the way.

If you want to be irresponsible, fine, suit yourself, but don't expect that your attitude is subsidized by the rest of the taxpayers, so pay in advance the problems your attitude will cause (public health bills, for instance).
