I think it will help curb obesity like Sin tax has helped curb alcohol and Cigarettes. 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:

Yeah, our Government loves permits and licenses.

Ahh, you are from the U.K.  So, does the license still apply if one is doing  videogame stuff?   If one just wants to play a PS3 or 360, can they?  If so, how does one do this, get a monitor to hook your system up to?
