Juice is considered unhealthy, so there will almost certainly be a huge backslash if sugar taxes are slapped on it. Also it seems a little more complicated than gp pointed out: natural sugar in fruit doesn't (as far as I remember) have the same impact that the sugar in juice made by the same fruit would have. Something about the sugar being digested slower because it is bound in the fibers that are destroyed when the fruit is made into sugar.
