Hmmm.... I wonder where they'd get those taxes. If only someone could come up with an idea about taxing crap food. Wait. Someone did.

Explain yoself! Going to the store to pick up some food can stock you for a week, thereby saving time from going to get food for seven days. Go out and get fast food once a day and I'm sure it'll add up to more than it takes to stop by the store once. Not to mention the gas with the back and the forth and the so on.
Except that it takes half an hour to an hour and a half to cook a decent meal, so it would definitely be faster to go to a restaurant. But even food at the store follows this general reasoning. All that crap frozen stuff is cheaper and takes less time to cook. I spend almost as much money on a meal at home as I do eating out at a cheap restaurant. Something is seriously wrong here.
