Tax soda because drinking too much of it leads to obese people, give me a break.

Next they will want to tax us for the number of times we brush our teeth in a day.

Enough of my off topic rant, gasoline is all ready taxed to much, a mileage tax scheme is ridiculous.

Patti, Ohio already has a "soda" tax. I don't think it had much effect on the obesity rate in Ohio. I'm all for taxes....... I think that everyone should be taxed, and no one should get directly reimbursed. Seems like the only ones paying taxes are the people who can't pay accountants and politicians or actually work.
