By last year, TV commentator Morton opinions Kondracke, the very embodiment of inside-the-Beltway centrism, was opining in his syndicated column that "a hefty tax based on the fat and sugar content of foods would discourage consumption, provide revenue for education programs...and recover some of the billions that opinions obesity-related illnesses cost the government in Medicare and Medicaid outlays." He presented the idea as a sensible, moderate alternative to "allowing trial lawyers to get opinions rich suing McDonald’s, Wendy’s, and Burger King." Such endorsements may not constitute a stampede, but U.S. News, The New Republic, and Morton Kondracke are good barometers of what’s considered part of mainstream political debate. It seems the Twinkie tax qualifies. So far legislative proposals to implement the idea, including bills in New York and California, have not gone anywhere.
