I understand that there's a problem with obesity, I understand that many people are not eating well, I just don't think taxing sweet foods is the answer. The solution is more about education, food selection, and making sure people know how to take care of themselves. Using myself as an example, I love candy, however I know about portion control, I know how to cook nutritious meals, and I understand ingredients. I'm not overweight, and I don't want to pay more for my treats. Paying more for my treats will only help pay hospital bills and not stop those bills from happening in the first place.
