Instead of making it difficult or more expensive to live in an unhealthy fashion, they should make it easier/less expensive to live a healthy and active lifestyle.
Taxes become an addiction for government and a burden on all people, so that is not, and as has been said already has proven not to be, a successful appraoch to smoking/drinking/snaking/whatever.
If you're fat, you should realize the health risks, find a way to modify your lifestyle and deal with it yourself. Same with smoking. Same with whatever. It's up to you to take personal responsibility, or live with the consequences. Not th egovernment. Not society. YOU.
Peace,
Pierre
