How is that attempting to impose morality. I know of nobody who said drinking surgery beverages is immoral. Unhealthy, yes, a contribution to obesity, yes, adding to health costs, yes, immoral, no.

The gov. is controlling what you can or can not eat using income to do it.

When they stop using cancer causing ingredients ppl might stop being so fat

When ppl start realizing how your FDA parents do not always pass what is safe or not , when it comes to money making that comes first.
