I honestly do not think that increasing the tax on soda will help the weight problem.
My DD is very large at 275 lbs, and she drinks water most of the time. It's not the soda, it's all the food she eats.
We decide wether we want to be at the right weight or if we want to be overweight. It's a choice of wether we want to do something about it or not.
My weight flucuates all the time. I drink maybe one soda every couple of days. It's all the Sweet Tea I drink. I am currently about 24 lbs over weight right now. I could lose it if I tried.
