Cmv: "soda" taxes don't do anything to solve obesity.:
At the end of the day governments simply use propaganda that a soda tax will reduce obesity, but the reality is its just them being greedy trying to make even more money off the poor and middle class.

Soda and sugary drunks is far from the only cause of obesity. Obesity is caused by a ton of factors that include over eating,  lack of exercise, and general change in human behavior. 

The argument is also proven false by the fact that soda has existed long before the current obesity epidemic, and soda has gradually gotten more expensive over the years and consumption hasn't dropped enough to prove that pricing is a huge factor

The comparison to cigarettes and tobacco is flawed as soda is not an addictive substance,  and in moderation causes no damage to the human body. In constant to cigarettes which even in moderation can be very damaging.
