[Gman]

Boulder. 100,000 people surrounded by reality.

[Great-Kazoo]

Not surprised , Another We have to pass it before we know what's in it law.

how the fuk can the voting public vote in Favor of a tax that no one knows where the money is going. Outside of it being another liberal enclave, how does this work.

[Rumline]

It's expected to raise $3.8 million in the first year, with nearly all of that money earmarked for public health programming, according to the original ordinance.

So TV/radio programs about public health? Or do they mean providing healthcare to bums?

[ray1970]

Eh. Whatever.

A- I avoid Boulder like the plague.

B- I don't really drink sugary drinks anyways.

[ray1970]

I say the fat people in Boulder should file some kind of discrimination law suit.

[brutal]

Who is this "Boulder?"

Now I remember, they're part of the asshats that got us these lame gun laws in 2013.

fuktards.

LOL, some place in PA passed a similar law, and it hasn't worked as they thought.

Liberals are really insane

[BushMasterBoy]

Spend the tax money for more birth control of liberals.

Who says you have to be fat to drink a sugary beverage? Some of the people I've known that would eat a quart of ice cream as "lunch", or eat an entire bag of Hershey's Nuggets in a meeting, and drank sodas all the time, were skinny people. They had the metabolism of a humming bird.

Well, I guess that rules out the law suit.
