Do you have any idea how much an efficient healthcare system (hence not the American one: more like a European one) costs?
Guess how much that would mean in sales taxes on those goods. Guess what would ensue: contraband of fatty foods, cigarettes and alcohol. Which means you'd also have to spend more money in crime fighting. So, no boost for the State coffers, but a nice boost for the Mob.
By the way, some kinds of fat and some kinds of alcoholic beverages, in some quantities, are actually beneficial for one's health (see the French paradox).
Also, it's not like risks factors are the only causes of poor health conditions.
Sales tax avoidance starts to spike past a 10 percent tax. Costs should be at least partially recouped through this kind of taxation.
