Whereas candy and soda are not part of a luxury tax.

I don't believe I said it was a tragedy or a miscarriage of justice.  I do think its dumb and wrong.  I also thought it was interesting.  I guess I didn't realize that it would upset so many people to think that perhaps, may, there's a chance that it  was a dumb thing to tax something most women have to have as a "luxury".

I can't wait until everyone reads the gun control post...  

I'm having a hard time finding where it's classified as a luxury.
