As If I Needed Another Reason Not To Live In New York

Besides the fact that my blood is thin from living my whole life in Texas causing me to be extremely cold natured, New York Governor David Paterson has provided me with another reason to be glad that I do not live in his lovely state.  He has proposed an "obesity tax" that will tax non-diet sodas.  There are other things in his plan that are more likely to pass than this proposal, but it really takes the cake.  Lawhawk has all the details.
