Food companies put sugar in a lot of the foods we eat to entice us to buy and eat more of it. It's fucking despicable. Most people are consuming way too much sugar.

I have been on a crusade for over a decade, vilifying sugar. Most Americans cannot comprehend moderation, when they consume sugar in most/all of their meals, snacks and drinks. Sugar consumption also leads to cancer and mental illness.

We should also force everyone to wer a helmet and full body armor at all times. Shoes with laces are dangeroud because you might trip, so only velcro from now on.

The internet spread degeneracy, so it should be banned. Cars should be illegal because people get killed in them and they aren't necessary, riding a bike would be far safer.

You know what, ban everything fun. Just get rid of everything because I say so. Wake up, eat your plain unseasoned oatmeal and glass of rice milk, read your daily bible passage, go to work, eat your tofu and celery lunch, finish working, come home, do some yoga, eat some more celery and drink your semen tea for extra protein. Say your nightly prayer, and then go to bed. Everything else should be illegal because I say so.

I don't accept the education argument. Fast food and soft drinks sell consistently well in the world's best educated countries. The fact is that marketing is a standalone cause for consumption of sugar products, and is not meaningfully reduced by awareness about nutrition or education.

I think that those who call for sin taxes understand that education has little to no bearing on the effectiveness of fast food marketing. They understand that people who make themselves sick with obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, etc could not give a shit how much of an unnecessary drain they are on healthcare resources, hence the call for them to contribute upfront via tax revenue.

I agree with the fat/sugar tax.

I consume far too much sugar and I'll admit that. I think the problem is that it simply hard to give it up.
I wouldn't say it need to be banned or made a illegal but I will say we need more people to start thinking of sugar in a different light. Which is going to take time.
