Anything for more money. I keep telling everyone on here, vote for people who signed the NO TAX PLEDGE!!!! These clowns are always looking for more ways to make higher taxes. They don't care about nevada businesses unless its thier own!! We have a governor who ran on the concensus that he wouldn't raise taxes. He's a LIAR!!!! He looks for ways to raise taxes and fees. Heres a couple of his favorites, the DMV fees and the 600 million dollar sunset tax!!!!!!!!!!! Vote sandoval out next session, that's a start!!!! He won't balance the budget because he knows he can get that 600 million dollars. That tax money was suppose to be a one time thing, it was suppose to sunset. These SOB,s in henderson had us vote on property tax increases, we voted them down. Now thier gonna go against the peoples vote and try to raise them anyway. Time to take them out with recalls or anything we can. Tyranny at it's highest when they go against our vote!!! We need to educate voters, especially the young. Do any of you talk to your'e kids around election time, oh I forgot most of you are always too busy!!!!!! Most of you don't know anything about gov't or how the election process works! Otherwise we wouldn't have the big tax raisers in washington. The obamas, pelosis and rieds!!! STAY OUT OF OUR BUSINESS!!!!

Really? Why does the government keep trying to control behavior with taxes. I agree we are becoming a fat nation, and that is a problem. Healthy food is more expensive than fast food. Healthy food takes more time. So many of us are so focused on surviving that healthy eating takes a back seat. Even a salad at McDonald cost more than a burger. The Government needs to work to make sure our food is actually food and not full of additives that can hurt us. That would go along way in making us healthier.

Junk food may be the only food a homeless person may be able to secure at times. Adding a tax on it just makes things more difficult for the homeless.

I think this guy is full of bull chit, his concern is how to get in your pocket for more revenue.
