>> Tell that to the relatives of the friends and family of those who have died. There you go Jeff... One person died and now the nation needs new policies and boat loads of new regulations. It wasn't one person.........it was 180K........and the drinking of soda causes problems beyond death........diabetes, kidney failure, the loss of teeth etc. In fact, its the greatest cause for people under 30 needing dentures. And who do you think is picking up the tab for those medical expenses? Individual responsibility is not a factor. Of course individual responsibility is a factor but responsibility only goes so far.........its why we have traffic lites at busy intersections.
