6. Wouldn't that sort of be taxation without representation - though that has no meaning any longer....
Why not get the soda companies to stop using the cheap sweeteners and HFCS. They could pass on that expense and make it healthier but a bit more cost prohibitive. It's not like there's a DIRECT link to soda and obesity - there are many more contributing factors. The comparison to cigarettes seems apples/oranges to me. :shrug:
