I tend to agree. I don't think I would like to have to pay sin taxes on
chocolate but if we have to pay them on tobacco and alcohol then it may
at least be consistent. I can't remember the last time I bought a bag
of potato chips, probably at least 10 years ago for a party. When I see
some of the people in the grocery stores with several bags of potato
chips it certainly looks like they are not good for you.
