This ban is simply silly. Ask 100 people who have used or use food stamps and 99 of them will tell you how they would get sugary soft drinks if they want them. The ban simply will create a minor inconvenience. The key, it that these drinks are relatively inexpensive compared to the alternatives. If the price of orange juice was the same as Coke - the consumption of orange juice would exceed that of Coke for people on food stamps.
