NY Governor Wants Fat Tax


People should have seen this coming, NY Governor wants to impose an obesity tax on non-diet soda to raise $404 Million Dollars, of course that assumes that people will continue to choose regular soda over diet soda's.

Whatever happened to taking personal responsibility for the poor choices that people make. Why is it that government believes that
it is their place to punish private corporations that employ thousands because of the irresponsible decisions made by consumers?

What is next a CO2 tax on everyone because we breathe, in order to battle global warming?
