Reply to comment by -Horatio_Alger_Jr- in Massachusetts should have a Tax Sugary Drinks. This would discourage consumers from buying products that may lead to chronic illness, and high long term costs to the health system. by [deleted]

Lol, there already is a tax on sugar. You can thank the corn lobby for that. I guess implementing taxes is ok when it’s backed by corporations am I right? But god forbid the people want a tax imposed on themselves.

You guessed wrong.

I have great news. When you fill out your taxes next year, there is a spot where you can voluntary pay more taxes. You are allowed to impose as much tax on yourself as you want.
