I agree YES it should.
Start with over-processed foods and go all the way to fast food. As a taxpayer I cringe at having to pay for consumers poor choices when it comes to their health care costs. |

i think that the tax shouldn't be fiscal. rather, they should put warning labels on the food wrappers explaining why saturated fat is bad for them, etc.... same for tobacco. i would say that at least 1/3 of the packaging should be a warning label. |

I don't agree since I would guess that most consumers of junk food are lower to middle class. |

well if they do then, they might as well feel free to tax beer and wine,just like cigs.since they both are a "sin" |

Actually.. we here in California already have a "snack tax". But it's not really working. We're buying just as much junk as we ever did. Also, the law is a bit confusing and doesn't cover everything. For example, salted "saltines" are considered a snack and are taxed. But unsalted "saltines" are considered to be bread, and are not subject to the snack tax.
A tax law will work, I believe. But it's got to be a lot better than the tax law we have. Ours is so full of loop holes that it was actually repealed at one time. But even that went nowhere, and the law stands, loopholes and all. |

I agree. The reason why people have grown obese in this country is that the government made it too costly to smoke cigarettes for many people, so the people stopped smoking and started binge eating instead. |

Hey, I agree but only to a certain extent, I don't think consumers should be taxed but the corporations who make the product. Not everyone reads lables or is aware that what they are eating might be bad for them. If manufacturers were held accountable for their food products by being taxed according to how unhealthy their product was then perhaps they would be forced to improve the ingrediants and food quality so as to eliminate or lower the amount they are being taxed. If food corporations complied with this it would provide better healthier food options to those who are purchasing it. |

Well, I both agree and disagree. Yes, it can be harmful to your health, but like cigarettes, having a junkie snack every so often won't kill you (And i don't mean people who smoke 6 a day, every week, I literally mean once in awhile.)
But then again, education hasn't helped people make the right decision, so taxing it heavily might help get the message across. |

No I don't agree. I think that everyone has the right to eat junk, smoke, and drink whatever they want. It's nobodys business. |

Consider this a non-answer, because I don't agree. |
