you must be really fat... like reeeeaaaally fat

-An "iPod tax" that charges state and local sales tax for "digitally delivered entertainment services" - in other words, that new Beyonce song you download.

State sales tax at movie theaters, sporting events, taxis, buses, limousines and cable and satellite TV and radio.

Costlier driving with the repeal of the 8-cents-per-gallon sales tax cap on motor and diesel motor fuel, plus and increase in the auto rental tax.

Tuition increases as SUNY and CUNY, $620 and $600 a year respectively.

A 50 cent tax on cigars. The current tax is equal to 37% of the wholesale price, or 34 cents a cigar.

No more sales tax break on clothes and shoes worth $110 or less, except during two weeks a year.

Higher taxes on wine, beer and flavored malt beverages. He would also impose an 18% tax on non-nutritional drinks like soda.


Mother fuker wants my broke ass to spend more money on school, shopping and now beer?? *crying uncontrollably*

coddling people with PC bullshit does nothing to solve the problem. fat people impose costs on society. they end up in the hospital more frequently for high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, etc... the cost to treat their self-imposed 'illnesses' are spread among society through higher insurance premiums for everyone. why should i have to pay $1000 a year for health insurance because 50% of the people make poor health choices. Maybe if there was a separate health insurance asset pool just for heavy people i wouldn't really care about how many fries they shove in their face. but since my insurance costs are greater because of obesity, I think the factors that go into causing it should be made more expensive. Since they clearly can't make the right choices, and their poor choices burden society, they should have to pay more to make those choices.


white trash does not impose a burden on society because they are trashy. it's not even close to the same thing.

well....its obvious you don't know how health insurance premiums are calculated.....the amount you pay has nothing to do with how fat other people are....unless you fit into that fat category. Each person's premium is calculated on several factors and those who are over weight are already being charged for being over weight.

"Raising the price of this liquid candy will put children and teens on a path to a healthier diet," said Elie Ward of the American Academy of Pediatrics of New York State.

I like how the governor and his staff are trying to make it seem like they care about the children. Fuck you. All you care about is covering the state's deficit and not looking shitty. The children my asshole.

obviously you don't know how it works. your premium is calculated based on the risk you pose and the overall cost incurred by the company. insurance is a risk spreading mechanism whereby all risk is pooled and the company attempts to spread it based on your actuarial risk. in insurance, there are winners and losers. fat people take way more from insurance than they pay. that means people, like myself, who don't see doctors pay more in insurance premiums than we cost to the insurance companies. the people who don't see doctors frequently indirectly pay for the treatment of fatties. If fat people paid as much as they cost to insurance companies they simply wouldn't buy insurance. the entire reason they have insurance is so they don't have to pay all their costs. since they see doctors more frequently, the likelihood they cost more than their premiums is pretty good. don't come at me with your elementary understanding of insurance.

Well....I guess my Charter Insurance Professional diploma along with being in the insurance industry for 13 years has no merrit.

You are right....you premium is based on the probability you will suffer an insured loss. The probability that some fat person will suffer a loss doesn't affect your premium in any way. Insurance is not based on what you take from the system....its based on the probability that you will take from the system. That is the basis of all insurance...whether its auto, health, property or liability insurance.

this may be true for individual coverage but a large number of Americans are covered by group health policies provided by their employer. I pay the same amount out of each paycheck for insurance as the fat tub of shit in the office next to mine even though that fat bitch is eating herself to death one meal at a time. On top of that the cvnt smokes too. I've heard the bitch on the phone with her doctors and pharmacies about her blood pressure meds, her diabetes, etc all conditions she has because she chooses to weigh twice what she should. How does the insurance company pay for the extra medical care she needs? By jacking up the price for everyone in the group.

Diabetes alone costs the Canadian health care system 13.2 billion dollars a year, and a person with diabetes incurs medical costs that are 2 to 3 times higher than those without. Thanks, you fat pieces of shit.

big brother can embed a microchip in the fatties and penalize appropriately for food purchases/consumption.
