I read two reports on CNN this morning concerning a proposed fat tax. One was in New York State, where a State representative is proposing a 1% tax on all video games, television, fast food and junk food. Here's the LINK.
The other article concerns a proposal by the British Medical Board to impose a 17.5% VAT tax to all fast food, junk food and those foods high in fat content. Here's the LINK to that.

My question is are you for a such a tax or against such a tax?
