The Quicky Would Taxing Sugar Make us Healthier? Doctors Think So
Australia loves soft drink, but with growing concerns around our health, doctors are calling for a sugar tax.

In this episode of The Quicky, we explore the concept of a Sugar Tax in Australia and find out where that money goes once it's in the governments hands.
