Fat Tax on "Unhealthy" Foods

[Fazc]

Taxing our health with constant and unending advertisements for quick and easy junk disguised as 'healthy', then taxing us on them.

Holy **** if I was more paranoid...

[SeventySeven]

I have no words for this stupidity.

Sounds like yet another sneaky way to rob people. There will be a tax on air in the next 20 years!
The day the government (any government) actually cares about the proles will be will day after never. Keep the people helpless and in fear; otherwise, they would realise they don't need idiot politicians creating new rules to 'protect' us when all they're doing is feathering their nests.
Sorry, don't mean to get political.

One other point: The woman who said she's eat healthier just to save money.
How about you, I don't know, eat healthy to avoid obesity, diabetes, heart disease and other illnesses in later life?

In a rush? How about some Microwaveable hotdogs, containing 27% meat and a bunch of additives and other crap we can't actually describe. Wash it down with a nice bottle of Mountain Dew, only 60 grams of sugar per half litre!
SPECIAL OFFER: NO FAT TAX COS THE 'MAN' SAY IT HEALTHY

I can barely afford natural foods as it is.

Or, or, or maybe save money by not eating so damn much in the first place! I swear I'm go to run for public office if crap like this keeps up. Start up a "bugger off" party. Anyone who joins can opt out of stupid crap like this but is responsible for their own decisions, no coming to Uncle Sam and demanding payment because they got fat from being moronic.

I want to throat punch every person who doesn't take responsibility for their actions and wants to make me pay for how effing dumb they are. I don't punch them because I take responsibility for my own actions and alter my behavior to avoid jail time.

Let's just start our own country.
