Food Restrictions

The idea of the government being able to restrict what we should consume in order to be able control the rise in health problems that is rising very quickly. The idea of the government interfering with our choices is very controversial because our identity is found through food and having that taken away would result in people losing a part of themselves. Having food restrictions would also cause many states to become a nanny state where the government interferes with personal choices. Restrictions would result in being very costly in order to be able to have the people eating much better because the consumer buying the unhealthy food is what makes the corporations stronger and sadly begin to call the shots on what should be eaten by the people, instead of the government calling the shots. Frankly these days money is what makes decisions which is what the large corporations like Walmart have which is what helps them advertise what they want instead of what is healthy and beneficial for the people. The government has an easier time following what the corporations want because it costs less money instead of providing healthier alternatives and restrictions on the health of the people which is much more costly.
