| Topic | It is inconsistent to support soda taxes but oppose SNAP restrictions on soda |
| Tyranthraxus 05/14/19 3:53:32 PM #3: | The issue with SNAP restrictions like this is that it costs more to implement/enforce than it saves. The high tax is supposed to act as a discouragement to buying it. When you're on SNAP, the discouragement is already more significant since it eats up more of what you have available. No one is trying to tell people not to buy it if you really want it. But I also don't like the idea of calling it a soda tax. It should also apply to sugary drinks in general like hi-c, capri sun, various fruit juices, etc. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...
