I drink more water now and not their bottled water.

Sounds like they have a Plan B for when they finally manage to kill off the tobacco industry.

[Atlas Sneezed]

Why go to the source, and go after the corn syrup industry?

Oh wait, that was created by federal subsidies.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

I don’t use ANY Coke or Pepsi products. Don’t believe in their one world b.s. and won’t knowingly give them a penny. Screw ‘em.

In Philadelphia recently, the union bussed the drivers down to City Hall to protest a tax on sugar.

Am I in the right century? The original Sugar Act also know as "The American Revenue Act" was imposed in 1764, 250 years ago. I'm starting to think that King George may have had a point.

I don’t like being an “I told you so” type gal............but

WE TOLD YOU SO!!!

Yes, this actually started with the Asbestos law suits in the ‘70s, moved to Tobacco, then to Microsoft, Intel, Wallmart.

Once a company is targeted, then don’t let up until they get $$$ AND DNC funding.

Intel was a Republican company ran by Republicans until the anti-trust suits of 2004.
Cuomo of NY alledged unfair practices with AMD which NY was helping in a new fab.

AMD got a 1B, NY got funding for a new fab.
End result is AMD is STILL dying as a company, NY is trying to find a buyer for the fab, Intel is out $1b.
Biggest change is Intel has become a DNC supporter.
Law suits have stopped which is what Intel wanted.

What a deal that was! Four hundred and twenty billion for lawyers and politicians to spread out among their closest friends!
Repeat is a formula that works I guess.

...the union bussed the drivers down to City Hall....

&&&
They bussed them? I guess it was in honor of St. Valentine’s Day. Hope they enjoyed the smooches.

That said, gee, I feel so sorry for Pepsi — Obama lovers— and Coke — one worlders. Glad I don’t drink any of that junk anyway.

[Resolute Conservative]

I have drank coke (2-3 a day) and only coke for over 50 years. I quit after the new coke commercial. Withdrawals are no fun.

[Right Wing Assault]

Screw Pepsi and Coke, but I can’t believe obama would go after his good buddies.

I’m sure they will get some reward if they dump sugar.

Time to start hoarding it if you haven’t yet.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Nanny State PING!

The last time I had a carbonated soft drink was the Fall of 1969, which coincided with the first and last football game I watched.

I am sorry to see the fedguv attack that stuff, but there were relatively few defenders on this site when some of us were attacking the war on tobacco.

Enjoy your Gulag, soda pop drinkers.

Pretty soon, you will have to present an ID to buy that stuff and drink it outside of everywhere.

Fine with me.
