U.S.Researchers Claim Sending Troops Into Every Home In America To Enforce Food Laws Will Benefit The Country.

Tax soda, pizza to cut obesity, researchers say
U.S. researchers estimate that an 18 percent tax on pizza and soda can push down U.S. adults' calorie intake enough to lower their average weight by 5 pounds (2 kg) per year.

Are these the same researchers that feel it is necessary to lie about "Global Warming" to prove their point?

Let's see, have outrageous taxes on gasoline stopped people from driving? Have outrageous taxes on cigarettes stopped people from smoking? Have outrageous taxes on alcohol stopped people from drinking?

Then I guess that outrageous taxes on food will not stop people from eating.

However, it will show the contempt that the politicians feel towards the slaves citizens that elected them to office.

Aren't you glad that politicians have figured out that the answer to every problem is either more taxes or more regulations (less freedom) or both?

    And it would increase the failure rate of businesses that sell pizza and soda by an equal 18%.
