Sugar Argument

Dear Mr John Key


I have a question for you. Why does New Zealand not have a tax on sugary drinks and lollies?  I am writing to you today because you have to put a tax on sugary drinks. I am going to tell you why New Zealand needs taxes on sugary drinks and lollies.


Diabetes is a huge health problem! People, not just in NZ, but all around the world are getting diabetes from having too much sugar. At the supermarket sugary drinks are cheaper than milk.  Even if they taste the same people would buy the sugary drink because it’s cheaper. Lollies are sometimes food and people all around the world are not having them as a sometimes food.


So Mr John Key, I think you should put a tax on sugary drink.


Your sincerely

Aisha
