Canadian Government Wants New Tax On Sugar - Fat People, Thin Wallets (THE TRUTH)

A Canadian Senate Obesity Report is pushing for a new tax on sugar, a ban on food and drink advertisements for children and government subsidies for health foods creating government monopolies while making people's wallets thinner.
WAM's Josh Sigurdson and author and economic analyst John Sneisen spoke about the insanity of government over-regulation and taxation.
For starters, the government doesn't care about you, so let's throw that notion out the window. If the government cared about you they wouldn't be signing declarations like Agenda 21/2030 promoting the depopulation of the human race. They wouldn't be propping up companies like Monsanto monopolizing unhealthy foods and inflating prices drastically on healthy foods. They wouldn't be putting toxic waste like hydrofluosilicic acid in your tap water by choice despite no actual upsides to such an extreme additive.
So the government wants more of your money. The whole point is to control you as much as possible. If they implemented all of the taxes and regulations at the same time 100 years ago, there wouldn't only be a riot, there would be a civil war. Their method is to slowly encroach on you by controlling you more and more over time. New taxes, new regulations, new legislation, slowly taking away your freedoms and liberties while making you pay out. They claim they care about the poor but then they allow the vast creation of debt which most of your taxes go to pay for. Then you consider the fact that the debt is created by the printing of your worthless IOU note currency (The Canadian Dollar) in the first place.
As collectivism grows stronger, people grow more and more poor and the government fools us into believing that we need more collectivism to fix these problems. It's called the Hegelian Dialectic of problem, reaction, solution and repeat.
So this sugar tax wouldn't be created in order to make you healthier, it would be created in order to make you pay more for other people's bad choices. It's a person's right to be unhealthy. No nanny state is going to change people's bad choices unless we implement absolute control over the populace via dictatorship. This is where we're heading in 2016 as government is being given more and more leeway to control the people. People are willingly giving up their freedoms.
Bans, regulations, taxation, none of that changes people's bad habits, it just makes them pay more and takes away businesses' rights to advertise in a free and fair way. That's called fascism. Why are we allowing ourselves to fall into a complete fascist, corporatist system?
It's none of government's business how we as individuals run our own lives and what we do to our body. Let's demand that our government back off and allow us to be free beautiful individuals and not a coerced collective of slaves. It's a slippery slope. I do not consent and neither should you.
