]]> Comment on The Proposed Soda Tax May Be Dead by Stu http://blog.snowbeverages.com/?p=105&cpage=1#comment-9210 Stu Sat, 15 May 2010 18:20:02 +0000 http://blog.snowbeverages.com/?p=105#comment-9210 Well, the ironic part about the proposed "soda tax" is that the vast majority of soda does not contain "sugar." It really contains high fructose corn syrup, amd the reason the big soda manufracturers choose that over cane sugar is because of the inexpensive proice. The price is so cheap because of government subsidies. So what the proponents of the soda tax are really calling for is a system that TAXES consumers and provides massive subsiudies to corn producers, making high fructose corn syrup cheap (and, indirectly, making traditional soda cheap) and then they want to TAX consumers again, to make the soda more expensive so consumers--allegedly--will consume less. It is just one more piece of this ill-conceived legislation that makes no sense.

These politicians speak about taxing pennies. This regressive tax adds dollars to our grocery bill. I wonder about if these same hacks have considered how much of this tax will be spent on replacing government letterhead after they’re thrown out of office. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGvO7nW4EqA

Just was trying to clarify your original statement. But the whole thing is lame as far as taxing one thing and not taking the whole picture of horrible foods that actually kill people. The nutritive education in this country is almost non-existent. But things have improved incrementally as you pointed out. So keep up the fight brother, we're with you in your crusade to raise some consciousness and fight stupid half measures like this proposed tax that could end up doing more harm than good.
