molson_golden2002 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 In defense of the soda tax: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/18/opinion/...amp;ref=opinion Mr. Paterson suggested the tax — an 18 percent sales tax on soft drinks and other nondiet sugary beverages — to help raise $400 million a year to plug a hole in the state budget. But it’s also a landmark effort that, if other states follow, could help make us healthier. Let’s break for a quiz: What was the biggest health care breakthrough in the last 40 years in the United States? Heart bypasses? CAT scans and M.R.I.’s? New cancer treatments? No, it was the cigarette tax. Every 10 percent price increase on cigarettes reduced sales by about 3 percent over all, and 7 percent among teenagers, according to the 2005 book “Prescription for a Healthy Nation.” Just the 1983 increase in the federal tax on cigarettes saved 40,000 lives per year. In effect, the most promising cure for lung cancer didn’t emerge from a medical research lab but from money-grubbing politicians. Likewise, the best cure for obesity may turn out to be not a pill but a tax. These days, sugary drinks are to American health roughly what tobacco was a generation ago. A tax would shift some consumers, especially kids, to diet drinks or water. “Soft drinks are linked to diabetes and obesity in the way that tobacco is to lung cancer,” says Barry Popkin, a nutrition specialist at the University of North Carolina and author of the excellent new book, “The World Is Fat.” He warns that the cola industry will spend vast sums fighting the proposed tax.

I figured out why you are such a tool. I, like others on this board, are everything that you wish you could be: Intelligent, Well Off and Successful. It wasn't easy as I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth. Instead, I paid for college, got an MBA and worked hard, all things that are probably foreign to you.

The truth is that I really don't care what you think of me, and it wasn't intended as a boasting. What is apparent is that people like you and Molson probably don't have the same goals or ambitions that others do. If you are satisified with the life that you lead and are happy than it is all that you really ask for. What you shouldn't be is jealous of or vindictive towards what others have worked hard to have.

It's obvious Now that is irony. You are jealous of what other people have and you are bitter because of it , yet you accuse me of having an inferiority complex. Until you are able to admit that it will be impossible to have an intelligent debate with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YellowLinesandArmadillos Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 The banks just jumped on the lifting of any restrictions by your girlfriend Barney saying the banks cant use income or ability to pay or as you call it redlining. Barney also said Freddy and Fannie were well run and in good shape. Sure the banks were at fault for taking that liberty but so were the people that could not pay in the first place. How do you make ligimate loans in poor areas gimme a break . Fact of life there will always be have- nots. Affordable housing for everyone , the dream of tards.
