From Don Surber:
378-pound governor proposes soda tax
Despite collecting a soft drinks tax for 65 years, West Virginia is second only to Arkansas in obesity.
West Virginia's governor, Democratic billionaire Jim Justice, has proposed doubling the tax as part of his Better Health Initiative.
Governor Justice is is 6 feet 7 inches tall and weighs 378 pounds.
Besides his obesity, Justice also owes the state $4.4 million in back taxes.
He is the richest man in the state.
Wonder when the next gubernatorial election for West Virginia is scheduled? Should be an easy victory over this Jabba the Hut - there is a photo at the site. I took pity on you my dear readers and did not include it in this post. Eyebleach warning.
