Note to Dr. Whelan: you are very misinformed. Obesity is not simply "over-ingestion of calories and underuse of exercise options" as she so flippantly states. Soda is worse than "empty" calories. Read about sucrose metabolism, or better yet, go back to medical school and learn biochemistry correctly. There is a reason that soda and juice consumption are the greatest predictor of obesity in children, and you have completely missed the mark in your rebuttal of Dr. Brownell
what the fuck is wrong w/ this pic? these cock suckers r sucking money anyway they can from the tax payers.....someone should go boondox saints and take out this shit.......at least the mafia has respect....these fuckers need to die!!! enough is enough....what the fuck is next? candy bars, cerials....then meat...then? some people need to die....this just is enough already....why don't they start stealing peoples wallets like other crooks....
Why tax soft drinks? It is due to our tax $ that HFCS (found nearly in all junk food) is soooooo cheap. Just stop the farm policy of over producing corn and this will cause the price to up naturally... without our tax dollars.
Please do not use the "poor" to further your agenda and that of the corporations you represent, they are the ones that deny the poor" access to healthy foods in their neighborhoods. You know you are wrong. Are you a real doctor? If so you are not upholding the Hippocratic Oath as true doctors should.
Here is something for you to argue for how about using the soda tax to subsidize vegetables and fruit for the "poor" you care so much about?
