Soda Tax?


No, tell Albany to worry about more important things

You know what pisses me off? Useless taxes. The Alliance for Healthier New York needs to stop wasting taxpayer money on their moronic ad campaign that is lobbying Albany to pass a fat tax.

If I want to ruin my health and eat and drink things that are bad for me all the time, that is my problem. I am fully aware that soda ruins my health. Why should I be forced to pay a penny per ounce tax because some stupid organization is trying to make people healthier? If people can’t keep themselves healthy, that is their problem.

Newsflash: Raising taxes will not prevent all these porkers from drinking their soda. It’s just an inconvenience. This idiot organization thinks that it will cause a 10% decrease in soda consumption? Absolutely not. Don’t these people understand that all of these extra taxes actually ruin the economy more?

By the way, happy Pi day! Go stuff your face with fattening pies you unhealthy fool.

Edit: Okay, so according to an article in the New York Times, an increase in soda price makes people healthier. Give me a break… It’s your decision just stop taxing me
