This just can't pass. I have really cut back on my soda usually iced tea semi sweet I purchase it. I drink maybe one a day sometimes two rare though. This a crazy tax to build revenue.When is enough enough! Are we allowed to keep any of our money or is it only the rich and politicians. Thats what I'm seeing. When will our ploiticians cut back??{#emotions_dlg.angry}

DALLAS - State lawmakers are considering a bill that’s sure to anger soda lovers.

The measure would enact a penny per ounce tax on sugar-sweetened beverages sold in grocery and retail stores.

The so-called soda tax would raise the price of a 20-ounce bottle of soda by 20 cents and increase the cost of a 12-pack nearly $2.

Money from the tax would go to the state’s general fund.
