Detroit Fat Tax

Heard about this during the weekend.

Taxing fast food. Not, in this case, to fund obesity or health incentives, they just want more money. This is just low. It's bad enough when they tax to force behavioral changes or ethical changes, but this is just another form of sin tax, like taxing alcohol or cigarettes. Why not tax all food more?

What's next?
