it was always a lie

...

>the freedom to clog your arteries and those of your children with litteral garbage
americans this is the tyrannical government you always talk about right

Don't deceive the leaf, you fucking leftshill.

The land of the free has been coopted by the collective ideologies, socialism and communism, and regulatory statutes were put into place for people's health, because fat niggers can't control their eating habits.

Is there any tax for alcohol or cigarettes?

>Netherlands

Don't you have a bull to prep somewhere, Eurocuck?

Take back your own continent, and THEN worry about ours.

Nobody is forced to buy that overpriced sugar-water.

I think you don't know the difference between free (libertas) and free (gratis). Freedom doesn't mean free shit.

Seattle is a big fucking commune. They don't want to be part of the US, just like New Yawk or San Francisco.

I buy those every now and then before a workout. $1 for a 32oz bottle here in mich

>worry
no please do keep killing yourself

Those are meant to be shared, a la between young couples out for the night, or split between 4 kids. They even come with 2 spoons.

NOT THE SODA

>tax our tea
>IT'S WAR!
>tax everything with sugar in it
>"W-well no on is forced to buy it"

What a difference. 250 years makes.

nice disinfo, and 1300 calories are still absurd

135g fat
263g sugar

yo wtf.

baskinrobbins.com/content/dam/baskinrobbins/nutrition/nutritionguide.pdf

>263g sugar

Okay I was joking, but that shit needs regulation. That's 8 times the RDA for a man in one meal.

RECOVERY FROM WHAT?

Probably an average price over here

Racism.

>reason.com/blog/2018/01/08/seattle-soda-tax-sees-massive-increases

>When Seattle's soda tax passed in July of last year, its proponents promised that it would accomplish all good things.

>Tacking on just 1.75 cents per ounce to sweetened beverages, said then-mayor Ed Murray, would not only encourage healthier consumption habits, but also generate enough revenue to subsidize trips to the farmers market, to pay for free community college, and even to roll back "white-privileged, institutional racism."

It's true. And yeah, 1,300 is a bit much, but this is for shit like a highschool sweetheart taking her crush out after he won a basketball game against Team Bignig from Niggerville. Not something you eat once a week.

Seattle is a marxist zone.

Seattle can barely be considered America. They're part of the sanctuary city shadow government network. All those drink tax cities are. It is not coincidence.

LOL fuck Seattle.

Watch how this will do nothing at all about the obesity problem.

Lol, just noticed the how to not pay this homo tax sign next to the price.

>land of the free
>Seattle

seattle is little canada foh

Lol this is what liberals do. The west coast is a lost cause.

Yeah the city was mad they put that on all the signs.

yes Washington state taxes them very highly

>sweetened beverage recovery fee
What?

Its not supposed to, it's a slush fund so they can keep pushing their bullshit nationally.

Costco may be headquartered in the Seattle region, but I've worked for them throughout college and the company as a whole is kinda right-wing. Costco is the epitome of capitalism and is constantly getting in state-level battles regarding alcohol sales and other dumb restrictions.

>To fund a 2.4 million program to help nigglet get fresh food.
>2 million in bureaucratic expense
>400k to pay for apples
The state of liberals

what are they hiding from me

not a leftleaf but the queen is still collecting taxes since 1783 (Treaty of Paris), and illegal income taxes (16th amendment) from Americans
Also the FED and IRS are also under foreign control (queens cousins the rothschild's and friends)
Not saying it's worse than here, because you guys still can speak openly, but we were never free

>Seattle
There's your answer.

don't remind me, i hate living in this socialist shit hole as well.

at least canacucks have large open space, i have pakis on top of my head.

A FUCKIN' TOOTHPASTE.

one of the very few things those faggots in seattle are right about. tax the ever loving shit out of that filth and make it unavailable for purchase with food stamps. subhumans pour that cancerous shit down their gullet by the gallon and next thing you know i'm paying higher taxes and higher insurance premiums because the fire dept. had to wheel some fatass down to the veterinarian hospital for a mri.

well if it is only a tax on sugared beverages then this is probably a good idea, because no one should ever drink a highly sweetened beverage due to the effect it has on the teeth.

Die leaf

I only ever drink Gatorade or things of the kind when doing heavy physical labor in summer. Like roofing or construction or landscaping. I'm at no risk of clogged anything, so why do I suddenly have to pay double the price of something because some cuck politicians hate the free market?

Seattlefag here

This applies to all sugary drinks...but it doesn't apply to sugary candy...or donuts...or ice cream...or any of the metric fuckton sugar delivery devices known as Starbucks lattes/frappuccinos. Basically, it hurts the poor, but allows basic bitches to continue their own sugar addictions(and Starbucks' profits) to be unaltered

Really boggles the noggle

The fact that California didn’t do this first is what surprises me.

journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.0050029

That's what black markets are for my friend.

should do the same to alcohol.

Omg it gets so much worst! Look at what these SICKOS are putting in grocery stores for kids to poison themselves with! That's 2KG! That's almost 8 TIMES AS MUCH as that shake! Why won't anyone think of the children?

You dumb fucking piece of shit leaf.

>or any of the metric fuckton sugar delivery devices known as Starbucks lattes/frappuccinos.

unfair and evil and probably unconstitutional.

Haha thats good on Costco. I would have went further and put how many miles away it was an a QR code for google maps to guide you there.

Hmm, well, if a mother let her kid sit down with a spoon and bag of sugar and just let him eat the entire thing would you call her a good mother?

>Smuggling Gatorade into Seattle
What a time to be alive.

>2600 calories
Pleb. Pic related has roughly 7000

Over half the price of cigs is tax.

Wow so they don't hurt the company their city is known for God damn I hate liberal cities.

As much you are right , so was the other dude. You got BTFO netherregion.

Sounds like a really good Seinfeld episode honestly. Kramer and Newman driving a truck loaded with the sweet stuff into Seattle.

>The land of the free has been coopted by the collective ideologies, socialism and communism, and regulatory statutes were put into place for people's health, because fat niggers can't control their eating habits.


NEW ORDER OF BARBARIAN HAS THE ANSWER AS ALWAYS

"He then went on to talk about nutrition and exercise sort of in the same framework. People would not have to .. people would have to eat right and exercise right to live as long as before. Most won't. This in the connection of nutrition, there was no specific statement that I can recall as to particular nutrients that would be either inadequate or in excess. In retrospect, I tend to think he meant high salt diets and high fat diets would predispose toward high blood pressure and premature arteriosclerotic heart disease. And that if people who were too dumb or too lazy to exercise as they should then their dietary .. their circulating fats go up and predispose to disease. And he said something about diet information - about proper diet - would be widely available, but most people, particularly stupid people, who had no right to continue living anyway, they would ignore the advice and just go on and eat what was convenient and tasted good. There were some other unpleasant things said about food. I just can't recall what they were. But I do remember of .. having reflections about wanting to plant a garden in the backyard to get around whatever these contaminated foods would be. I regret I don't remember the details .. the rest of this .. about nutrition and hazardous nutrition. With regard to Exercise. He went on to say that more people would be exercising more, especially running, because everybody can run. You don't need any special equipment or place. You can run wherever you are. As he put it. "people will be running all over the place." And in this vein, he pointed out how supply produces demand. And this was in reference to athletic clothing and equipment.

>Hmm, well, if a mother let her kid sit down with a spoon and 20$ 2600 calorie Baskin Robin shake the size of the kid's torso and just let him eat the entire thing would you call her a good mother?

As this would be made more widely available and glamorized, particularly as regards running shoes, this would stimulate people to develop an interest in running and .. as part of a whole sort of public propaganda campaign. People would be encouraged then to buy the attractive sports equipment and to get into exercise. Again .. well in connection with nutrition he also mentioned that public eating places would rapidly increase. That .. this had a connection with the family too. As more and more people eat out, eating at home would become less important. People would be less dependent on their kitchens at home. And then this also connected to convenience foods being made widely available - things like you could pop into the microwave. Whole meals would be available pre-fixed. And of course. we've now seen this ... and some pretty good ones. But this whole different approach to eating out and to .. previously prepared meals being eaten in the home was predicted at that time to be brought about - convenience foods. The convenience foods would be part of the hazards. Anybody who was lazy enough to want the convenience foods rather than fixing his own also had better be energetic enough to exercise. Because if he was too lazy to exercise and too lazy to fix his own food, then he didn't deserve to live very long. This was all presented as sort of a moral judgement about people and what they should do with their energies. People who are smart, who would learn about nutrition, and who are disciplined enough to eat right and exercise right are better people - and the kind you want to live longer."

Kek that's hilarious. I'd do the same if I owned a store that was hit with these taxes.

It is pretty free if you ignore laws and buy everything with cryptocurrency.

>7000
Stand aside fag and witness 10,000 calories

I loved working for Costco, I quit once I graduated and found a job but I would be lying if I said I don't think about going back, only thing stopping me is I make more in my career.

I got a Vermonster once with buddies. I'm pretty sure it's even more. We finished the whole thing too.

why not just execute anyone with a waist >37in? solves the fatass problem without taxation

You're retarded if you think it will stop at sodas.

I see no issues here. Fat people pass their health care costs onto the rest of us (just like lazy, parasitic conservacucks who think that going bankrupt when their fat asses need health care somehow makes it free).

I had pic related recently which is a chocolate shake in a glass dipped in chocolate with a cheeseburger and bacon on sticks right above the shake. The actual shake part was great, the other meh. I could feel myself dying drinking it but it was the first shake I had in 5 years so I was like its fine.

Fucking good. Tax the shit out of the liquid sugar beverage jew. Kill Coke, and kill high fructose beverages.

The thing is that the British Empire raising a tax was fair. The tax was proportional and was required by the British to keep shit running because they were locked in a multi-front global war.

Americans have always been whiny retarded shitbabies.

You see no issue that it only applies to certain drinks?

You see no issue that sugary drinks aren't actually the leading cause of obesity?

You see no issue that certain companies are allowed to sell the same sugary drinks without the additional business killing tax?

>90% daily calcium
>80% daily iron
>38g protein

sounds like a fucking health shake to me

You have to go back.

>I see no issues here. Fat people pass their health care costs onto the rest of us

I'm not fat, why would I have to pay this? If you want to tax fat people, tax fat people. Don't tax something unrelated.

Oh jesus that tax! There can't possibly be a substitute for Gaytorade

But seriously fuck Seattle, the commute and traffic are a fucking nightmare. Traffic engineers don't exist in this area apparently.

At least we don't have an income tax tho.

>because fat niggers can't control their eating habits.
So if fat niggers ate right none of this would have happened? Lurk more. You make niggers look good.

The commute and traffic are fine compared to most large cities dude.

Everyone in this city is spoiled as fuck and autistic and gay

If I were the mayor for Tukwila, I'd build a Sugarland just for the Seattle commies.

Aside from "a tax," what exactly is meant by "recovery fee?"

Depends where you are commuting from. Going from Renton to Seattle at any time of day by HW 405 or 5 is a miserable experience. Many such cases.

this is how it works, idiot. free market capitalism = people making dickshit moves to tap a larger market share.

Socialism, thats what happened

Post workout Insulin spike. Get yuge faggots

Son, I've never ventured south of like Boeing field

>Those are meant to be shared, a la between young couples out for the night, or split between 4 kids. They even come with 2 spoons.
that claim is as retarded as putting "calories per 1/5 bag" on a bag of jelly babies because the people who buy them are obv going to ration them over five days

Blacks drink themselves into severe obesity and diabetes and never ever stop. Now that the government has to pay for their medical, it has to fundraise somehow. This is the fairest way to do it. It makes fucking fatasses cover some of their own medical expenses.

Would you rather all be taxed more so that brown people can slurp down a box of coke every single day?

Virtue Signalling: The City

Lucky fucking you.

It got bought up by disney

>This applies to all sugary drinks

Does this include juices as well? They have high sugar too
I was reading in the paper today about about loonies trying to pull this shit as well but wont affect juices and some other products

THE BOSTON TEA PARTY WASN'T ABOUT THE TAX IT WAS ABOUT RIGHTS

fucking brainlets. The tax was miniscule, they wanted to hit the King where it hurt, in the money. They weren't protesting the money they were protesting the current political privilege of the colonies and colonists.

Also that country died after the civil war and the country we live in now is unrecognizable.

>Does this include juices as well?

No, juices are exempt unless they have added sugar, no matter how high it is naturally. (Apple juice is like higher than Coke)

Non whites came and fucked everything up

>2600
I don't even eat this much in a day

Socialists.

>seattle
Libshit shithole with $15/hr min wage and taxes through the roof. That probably costs like $10 at my local costco. I get a 36 pack of 12oz cans of pepsi for $9.99 in Lancaster, PA
