Sugar is a drug. Plain and simple. I think it should be taxed as such. There is increased tax on Tabacco, Alcohol, Marijuanna etc… the reason is obvious it’s causing a lot of the health issues. And secondly by taxing it… the “heavy users” should be contributing more since they will need more funding IF they make it to the Medicare stages for heathcare.
Labels should be clean and simple. Take the marketing and propaganda out of the packaging so people will know they are consuming higher levels. This will help people who are trying to limit sugar to actual choose the correct product more than not. And on occasion to “treat” themselves with more knowing/consenting to the increase risk.
