Enter the britbong.
You can't even fucking read. It's a ban on underage sales of caffeine (aka a drug) not sugar. It's also stores changing their polices, not an actual law.
Here
because it is politically inconvenient
The government will ban or tax everything they can unless they think it will prevent them holding onto power
>children can't drink soda anymore
wtf I love bongland now
Drugs don't have enough of a powerful industry behind them.
Sugar, on the other hand, has an industry that has been lying to the government for at least 100 years.
>drop soda prices by subsidizing corn
>raise soda prices through taxes
Bra-fucking-vo
We actually pay for those subsidies. If it was merely a wash, the huge corporations wouldn't pumping the shit out like water. It's a bad deal for everybody not rich enough to hold shares in those companies. This doesn't even account for the assrape from the healthcare costs side. It was always just a nasty moneygrab robbing the middle class.
Because it's retarded to treat your subjects like children.
Did you know that in Google offices, while many offices offer free food, they had to hide the candy in black boxes so that they aren't immediately visible and tempting?
In some offices, they have traffic-light signs next to food. Obviously, greens are your vegetables. Yellows are pretty much everything else. And of course, anything that tastes remotely good is red.
Do you want to be treated like a child in every facet of your life?
Because a lot of people sure as fuck want to.
