I think the only solid point I’ve seen against these is when there just aren’t cheap alternatives for soda. Sometimes even bottled water is more expensive.

I am fine with using a filter at home, but I could imagine hearing people’s reasons they’d have trouble with this bill.

If the only major argument is that soda is the cheapest and there’s not a cheaper alternative then that further justifies this bill in my opinion. It’s hard to predict the future, but prices and behaviors would have to change if there were no cheap alternatives. Of course there’s no guarantee that unscrupulous healthy beverages wouldn’t go up in price, but that seems unlikely.
