Should the Government Decide What You Eat?

I believe in freedom, yet also in a strong government: If not for our government bailing out big companies now, where would we be? Perhaps some in the government may want to do good for others, when they can be making more money in the private sector. Taxes are important. Perhaps the government should tax sugary soda,and other food. It may prevent people from eating so much of it and save in health care costs later. What do you think?
