I think its a great topic Randall and I really don't have a position one way or the other although I think that government is opening up pandora's box when it goes this deeply into regulating what food stamps can buy. The items that are currently prohibited are clearly defined and really no logical debate can be made. But this soda thing? Where do you draw the line? Are sodas bad but fried chicken is okay?? What comes next?
