Philadelphia is a city that should be proud of having a mayor willing to stand up to the powerful soda sugar industry. mayor Jim Kenney took on the soda industry and won installing a new tax on the purchases of these problematic drinks that have become such a fixture especially in the poor and degraded income communities in urban areas.
The amount of lazy and overweight people in cities blighted neighborhoods is appalling and no where can tis be more evident than in Philadelphia. This city has some of the laziest and fat all-day soda drinking other fuckers. There was strong resistance in the hood to having this tax implemented as they said the tax targeted Black residents, but in reality Black residents should be more vocal against these sugar drinking bad health companies targeting poor residents with enough problems that come with the results of a lifetime of drinking sod or pop as some would call this product that gives Philadelphians hebetudinous outlooks in their lives and that soda needs to be such a large part and worth a fight over. many of these poor communities have little neighborhood shopping and green grocery selections and are basically stuck with the mom and pop over-priced convenience stores who are run by mom and pops from Egypt or Jordon.
The people in the community have for long supported these businesses with little to offer in beneficial wit regards to healthy eating and inner-city Philadelphians have nothing to blame for themselves for tis whether it be crime they ignore or just an ignorant attitude of eating and consuming bad unhealthy junk. Sometimes it takes government to step inand remind or change the stupidity and inability of these people to live a healthier life that is not more costly to government in the long run.
