6:31 pm
a soft during tax is discriminatory, regressive, and will not address the challenge of obesity. we have commissioned the economic institute to complete a study which will prove inefficiency of such tax. it will be ready in 15 days, which will give us another tool to communicate both to the media and to avoid against ground within the party or new york times that from here. so long ketta bottles. honda me, johnson, save on your current cook. cook echoed out of here the policy kettle renewal due to an optional say the button i have it is s wish yes young's bottle mini joe imprinted on the number. i think this experiment on jagged. oh, my god, the sugary drinks fast foods causing all these health problems. i mean, look at that. would you just look the times revealed that between 2008 in 2015. steve blair had received over 3 and a half $1000000.00 in research funding from coca cola
6:32 pm
appointed to serve as scientific expert by the city and county of san francisco. dean shillinger must untangle the truth from falsehood. when we did the analysis of these studies, we found that every study that found that there was no association between sugary beverage consumption and obese in diabetes was funded in some way by the industry. whereas among all the studies that found that there was an association between the consumption of soda and sugary beverages and obese and diabetes, except for one were independently funded. so we now know and there's other evidence that industry has been i'm influencing very deeply. the medical and scientific establishment to create controversy over the question of whether their products cause disease. mm hm. the junk food industry is cornered all over the globe activists are demanding tighter legislation to
6:33 pm
protect consumers. the battle has now become political with in the 30 years since warning labels and other forms of regulation were placed on tobacco over 1000000000 lives have been saved. like say, that's a pretty good day at the office for people who make policy, ah malia cohen and one of her fellow supervisors have made san francisco. the 1st he was city to declare war on sugary sodas. when people realize how much sugar they are consuming in one can of soda, they stop and they think. so we had testimony right here in this chamber of doctors of nurses, a researchers that talked to us about the effects of sugar in our body. and it was through these ongoing dialogues for years that we came up with that idea to began
6:34 pm
to tax sugary beverages from imposing attacks is virtually revolutionary in the united states. the industry raged, it says, pitched the line that the government was interfering with grocery shoppers feeding a family is difficult enough in today's economy. now some politicians want the government telling me how i should do it. they want to put new taxes on a lot of groceries. i bought the beverage. a sugar beverage industry came out. they hired lawyers, they hired lobbyists, they found people within the community to come out and say, please don't tell us what to eat or what to drink. this is not a nanny state, we want to make decisions on our own. they spent millions of dollars. as a matter of fact, they out spent us almost $6.00 to $1.00. give me a break and i can decide what to buy without government help. the government is just getting to involved in our personal lives, tell the candidates government leister to rummage,
6:35 pm
but public health advocates were able to mobilize citizen protests against the recalcitrant industry. we're going on with this bad doctors and politicians lining up outside of san francisco, city hall framing the sugar sweetened beverage debate as the people versus big soda, we no longer can fit back and let little big. so the industry target and her our community. mm. mm. the tax was finally voted in the victory was bitter. when san francisco moved to require health warnings on soda containers like the ones on cigarettes, the soft drink lobby, sued once again and one on appeal. mm. the warning labels were shelved. a same method had been used in new york city. when mayor michael bloomberg suggested a law limiting the size of jumbo sodas, golden restaurant, ah,
6:36 pm
bloomberg was marked as a scolding nanny and the courts ruled in the industry's favor. ah. in this face off between corporate freedom and consumer protection, freedom once again seemed to be the private property of the most powerful. i represent a part of san francisco, that was immigrant. people, people who speak english as a 2nd language. people who live in subsidized housing, public housing in tenements. and the one thing that we all had in common was that we were dying from preventable diseases dying. and you know, that was just really hard to accept. and
6:37 pm
it seemed like people didn't care. the industry didn't care, they continued to target their money and resources to get people addict it so that they become wealthier. the. so what brings me to this entire conversation is that i don't want people to die. and if it means changing policies, changing, educating people. so that they're aware of the choices that they have and bringing more choices to people. then that's what i'm about. that's what i'm fighting for. and we can at least sit by and let them kill us. so that's
6:38 pm
