Banning Soda?
Public health experts are thinking of banning sugary drinks.
What do you think?
I don't think it should be necessarily banned, however I think consumption rates of sugary drinks are way too high. I guess consumption should be regulated, but that seems impossible. I mean how can you tell people that they can no longer drink their favorite drinks? It just doesn't sound like its going to work!
I think this is a bad idea especially if America is pretty much the land of free?! But how if they want to bann things that have absolutely nothing to do with law but an image of society?!
