Removal of the sugar tax
Many people have been wronged. We strongly believe that the sugar tax should be abolished & the prices of products containing the sugar tax should be lowered back to their initial prices. Not only is it affecting the youth, but the elder generations too. Instead decrease prices of healthier foods.
These are a few references which support our ideologies regarding the sugar tax and will give you a brief overview on the negative impacts it has on society.
