Nowadays, all over the world, people, either for their reluctance to cook or for having rigid work-schedule, are dependent on the consumption of fast food. As it is a known fact that a substantial amount of sodium and preservatives are used in the preparation of fast food, hence, makes it unhealthy and thus, it exposes several risk factors to public health. For that reason, many people think that the junk food producers should be taxed higher as it could be utilised in public health service, whereas, others believe that charging high tax might not solve the issue. In my opinion, the government should tax this sort of food although there are some underlying counter-arguments involved with it.
