Tax soda, pizza to cut obesity: US researchers

To quote what a wise person once said, "F**k You."

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.

Do not tax the calorically responsible 18% for food.

Tax the fat 18-28-38-48-58-68-78-88-98-108 % on sick care insurance, fat person clothes, fat person scales, fat person caskets, fat person wheelchairs, fat person toilets, fat person ambulances, all fat person things and leave the rest of us alone.

See where this is going?

Fit people, fight back.
