Pop Tax
First of all, that video was really disgusting. But then again, this scare campaign would most likely work for about a few months, and then it's effect starts to wear off a person.I think that obesity is a growing epidemic that people don't treat as importantly as other health issues. It can lead to many different health problems in the future, and can eventually kill you.
In my opinion, I think that if America starts taxing on unhealthy foods, I think that more countries would follow, since, of course, America's the most powerful country in the world. Personally, if this ever were to happen, I think that I would still spend money on things like pop and chips, but not as often as I do now. After all, pop and chips are okay to have in moderation.

I agree with you, the scare campaign would only work for a certain amount of time, then finally a person would have a craving for these unhealthy foods, since of course they do taste so good. You are also right, people don't take obesity seriously. It should be more important is someone's life, and people should be thinking about it more. But yes, I agree with you.
thats so truee ! it probley will effect people, then it would probley just fade away !
hey Camela!
I agree with your post, I think that it will scare people away, but after that I think that their going to forget about it after. I think that people should balance their diet instead of taking other pills and what not. But overall I agree with you, because of what you said is all true!
I agree with you on this post, I think that it does scare people at first when they take in the video, but after a while the may tend to forget about it and continue on with there soda-drinking ways. I think people should know the difference between what they need for their body, compared to what they want. In the end, I do agree with your statements.
I agree with you, people are only going to stop for a while just because they were disgusted by the video. But sooner or later, they will drink pop as much as they use to. You're right, people don't take obesity seriously until it's too late! Anyways, I agree with you're saying.
