They won't make too much from me, so I couldn't give a shit. I drink tea, espresso, orange juice and Absinthe. Forget soda. I've had my soda phase. The only decent ones are Dr. Pepper and Jones soda and they're too sweet.

Fear not, this is not...the end of this world.

I thought about it for a moment. Then I realized as I was typing why do I f*cking care... It is 3 cents. I can stick my hand inside my couch and find more than that...

It is a grand idea, and history has proven that consumption taxes are some of the most successful. Cigarette taxes increases in taxes led to twenty percent less consumption, but the added taxable revenue more than made up for it. Of course, a healthier society will inevitably lower health care costs, so it is really win-win-win.
Hey! Read my movie blog! http://centralfloridafilmcritic.blogspot.com
Win win for the assholes who think they have a right to force their views on health on others. Lose lose for the rest of us. A shit bill to reduce healthcare quality in exchange for lower cost, AND less money for us to spend! Wonderful. I see so many wins here. 3 cents isnt going to make many people stop drinking soda. All it's going to do is fuel a crappy bill that'll get shoved down our throats.
For Our Lord Sheogorath, without Whom all Thought would be linear and all Feeling would be fleeting. Blessed are the Madmen, for they hold the keys to secret knowledge. Blessed are the Phobic, always wary of that which would do them harm. Blessed are the Obsessed, for their courses are clear. Blessed are the Addicts, may they quench the thirst that never ebbs. Blessed are the Murderous, for they have found beauty in the grotesque. Blessed are the Firelovers, for their hearts are always warm. Blessed are the Artists, for in their hands the impossible is made real. Blessed are the Musicians, for in their ears they hear the music of the soul. Blessed are the Sleepless, as they bask in wakeful dreaming. Blessed are the Paranoid, ever-watchful for our enemies. Blessed are the Visionaries, for their eyes see what might be. Blessed are the Painlovers, for in their suffering, we grow stronger. Blessed is the Madgod, who tricks us when we are foolish, punishes us when we are wrong, tortures us when we are unmindful, and loves us in our imperfection.
