Taxing obesity: is taxing fatty foods and soda the answer to stopping obesity in the US?

No it won't work even with the tax it would still be cheaper to eat the bad stuff than it would to eat healthy. Look around you a candy bar is cheaper than a salad. A hamburger at fast food is cheaper than a sit down resturant.

Its all just another way for the greedy government to take our money. "more, more, more" is all they want. No one is going to care about you but you, and the government is only out to exploit you and the problems that it has created.

They should do something constructive to help the people instead of trying to just put more money in their pockets. But of course that's just how I feel about it.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
