Ummm, because it is a poison. Last I read regulation of an addictive poison is in fact a legitimate function of government. And for all the 10th admendment cultists out there, this must be perfectly constitutional, right?

I would just ban it and throw the makers, dealers and distributors in jail since it is a cause of the leading health disaster in America.

We disagree, to put it mildly. The government has a legitimate role in informing the public. Once we are informed, freedom means we get to choose, even if a petty dictator doesn’t like out choices.

Note: We agree that sugary soft drinks are harmful. Where we disagree is that I consider Nanny Government a far greater threat - pure evil regardless of the claimed benign intent.

It is strange that my 91 year-old mother drank lots of Coke, ate lots of cookies and pies, and had her bowl of cereal sweetened with sugar every morning. My question is why has that “poison” sugar had no affect where others are having health problems? Maybe some research may come up with some answers as well as some cures.

Bull. Vegans will beg to differ. Vegans, who have zero problem eating sugar because it’s plant based, show zero problems with diabetes or other so-called sugar related problems. Watch “What the Health” and educate yourself on how misinformed you are about sugar. You’ve been lied to.

Why do you always start your posts with "Ummmm"?

What does that even mean anyway?

This is stupid. And I am a low carber, so I have no love lost for sugar, but this is idiocy.

Everything in moderation.

Would you like the Government to Mandate that the only “approved” form of Hydration be Water?
