NY Obesity Tax

The food Nazis are on the rise

You want freedom? You won’t find it in New York. They mayor of New York City eliminated foods fried in transfat and now the governor is proposing a tax on non-diet soda (LINK).

Why just soda…why not tax beer (except for light beer)? Why not tax milk (except for fat free milk)?

Are taxes a necessary evil needed to raise revenue for government services or are taxes a tool to control the population? Once you accept the principal that taxes can be levied in order to control you, how much freedom do you really have?
