Aunty M,

I was just being sarcastic. The Devil made me write it. I do agree with the sentiment, but that's probably because I'm not one of the too many Americans who are addicted to soft drinks. However I have 4 in the last week or so, way above my 1 every month or two.

Of course there are way more important things for government to work on, but gov't. doesn't have the will to work on important problems because that pisses off too many citizens. So gov't. and citizens strike a happy balance by instead addressing issues that matter the least.
