It feels too good to be fat, other than all the bad looks, aches and pains in your body and probably possible health problems. I am sure there are just the same amount of addicting ingredient in food and drinks ( caffiene, Cocoa) as there are in Cigarettes. All this will actually help is the government get more money to waste. We should tax watching TV too much as well. |
In Britain, there is a television tax actually. Yes, you need to pay the government for the right to watch television broadcasts:
