You don't need a single gram of sugar or carbohydrate to survive. But you do need protein and fat to survive, and meat is the most efficient way to get those macros.

Governments generally don't tax things that are essential to live.

>>12791983
Pretty interesting, considering that chicken and fish are the two filthiest animals that humans consume.

So make meat cost enough to only be able to be enjoyed moderately by most people. In America, people eat meat every day, 3 times a day, in double portion sizes. If you eat meat more than 3 times a week, you're a goon.

>You don't need a single gram of sugar or carbohydrate to survive
But you do need carbohydrate-containing foods to be healthy
>But you do need protein and fat to survive
No no no, you need specific amino acids and certain essential fatty acids to survive. They're found in every unprocessed food by default. You can't pull the "no essential carbohydrate" card and then pretend that all protein and fat as a group are essential.

then they just drive right outside city limits and get it anyway, consumption as a net result at most ends up being a miniscule change if that, the only ones that could truly be affected are genuine poorshits without cars and it crippled them even further, jobs/businesses are driven off or not encouraged in the city implementing it, and it just becomes a stupid unnecessary hassle to run around

road to hell is paved with good intentions

thats the point drive out local business with taxes and replace them with corporate franchises that are exempt from the taxes
