| Comment | I can't remember where I read it but it apparently has already had a big impact.
I hear the common viewpoint about it being a tax on the lower demographics, but do remember water is free.
Perhaps the reality is that being conned into drinking ridiculous quantities of sugary drinks is the real tax on the low dem. Honestly I know plenty of people who drink their recommended daily fluid intake purely in fizzy juice. It's not uncommon to see bru or coke in baby bottles, even. I'm not behind unnecessarily consuming artificial sweetener, but the amount of sugar we (the low dems especially) are consuming is definitely detrimental to individual and societal health. |
