Should sugary drinks and soda be taxed?

Of course. It's time for the poor to pay their fair share.

I am very sympathetic to this argument. I'd rather we cut corn subsidies and shift them to things like carrots and apples. Barring that, though, I don't know what else is to be done. People seem to be blind to the obesity epidemic, which is right up there with heroin, honestly, and the calories in drinks.
