This is Obama's socialist view. He wants to take over health care. When he does alot of things will be outlawed or heavily taxed to keep medical expenses down. Good bye McDonalds for making people fat and causing health care to rise. Good bye pogo sticks for causing people to break their arms causing health care to rise. Good bye everything. I think this is something that happened in one of those other communist euro countries. Why is America going back in time. Maybe he should quit handing out all this money causing our taxes to go up making him tax coke. What an a**.

While we are at it, let's give a tax break/rebate to anyone that is overweight and they surgically have their own stomach stapled. You know, like many states do if you buy an energy efficient applaince or heater....same principal.
If any of my comments outrage you, then this tax should outrage you, because essentially this is what they are proposing./

While I agree with the principle of your point there is a vast difference in asking someone to undergo a controversial major medical procedure with a myriad of possible complications, including death, to obtain a tax break versus
getting one for buying a piece of equipment.

I drink tons of soda...probably at least 2 litres a day, and am very slender. It's not the soda...it's the chair those lazy folks are sitting on. They need to tax chairs, to get people moving, to improve America's health...not tax soda
. You can eat/drink as many calories as you want, so long as you work it off.
