This REALLY ticks me off!!!

A friend of mine just sent out the federal government's new remedy of ridding Americans of excess weight. They're thinking of making us pay extra taxes for soda pop, fried foods, ice cream, etc. Next step will be to make those items and others a crime to purchase and eat. Remember the days of prohibition??? Looks like we may be headed back in that direction...

Let each and every adult be responsible for what he or she puts into his/her body. Of course, I am not including illegal drugs with that statement.

More and more, I am more agitated with what our current government is trying to put on us. I think that it should be more involved in fighting REAL crime such as child molestors, murderers, child and spouse abusers...

Another of my opinions, like it or not.

  1. Hi Lynn,
    I'm with you, some of us don't have a say in how we look or what we weigh. I have been on every diet that there is and then I always end up with a terrible cold that lasts for ever. Even if I take vitamins. If they keep taxing just the rich will be able to eat and drink and the companies will go broke then no jobs. I really think its a none win deal. Thanks for letting me vent. Keep up the good work. Carolyn
