    It makes me think of the Danish fat tax that failed.

    While there is only limited evidence to suggest that the tax was significantly hurting Danes in the wallet, a number of Danes have been crossing the border to Germany (where prices are as much as 20 percent cheaper) or Sweden. Along with rescinding the fat tax, the ministry also said that it scrapping plans to introduce a sugar tax.

    Of course, they swore that they ended the tax because it was hurting businesses and the high prices were putting jobs at risk.
