The thing is this: why only tax fast food?  You can get food just as unhealthy from the supermarket.  It seems to me that the more consistent thing to do would be to simply tax all unhealthy food.

i just think brtd's strong opposition to a fast food tax is laughable.

Why is it so laughable when almost everyone else agrees with me?
