Probably 1/3 of all revolts, rebellions, and protests in the American colonies in the 1700s involved food, tea, or sugar. Just say in’.

Whatever ‘healthy’ fare DeLauro is consuming is causing her to switch sexes like some fish or frogs.

No thanks.

As if there isn’t enough problems in this country/world, another liberal idiot comes up with a tax on sugar? She needs to get a different job and stop wasting OUR MONEY.

I used to laugh at the line from the old Beatles song, “they’ll tax the air you breathe...” Prophetic.

Treat people like stupid, irresponsible, dependent children don’t be surprised if they act like stupid, irresponsible, dependent children. Government needs to get out of people’s lives before we have total collapse.

We subsidize big sugar here in America to pollute our water and air then tax sweatened products?

The astounding thing is that this hag found a way to make herself even more repulsive than her appearance suggests.

I agree, let’s free the farmers from government interference. Including farm subsidies.

Good thing there isn’t an ugly tax. DeLauro would get hit twice, once for inside and once for outside.

Treating people like stupid irresponsible children is the American Way. Just ask the DEA.

The government should also stay out of the food business.

That goes for you, Michelle.

Bet she can't even boil water.

This isn’t about health as much as it is about bringing in more revenue to the Feds coffers.

The U.S. should simply quit paying sugar subsidies and let the market price prevail.

From the looks of it Rosa Delauro should consume some more sugar as well as a high calorie meal.She looks as if she’s starved herself to death.

Well if she truly had child welfare in mind, then all those who get food stamps would not be able to buy JUNK FOOD or DRINKS. That alone would accomplish much to improving childhood obesity. Make their neighborhoods crime free to boot so they can get out side to play with out worry of the flying bullets for the gang bangers.
