n some countries an increasing number of people are suffering from health problems as a result of eating too much fast food. It is therefore necessary for governments to impose a higher tax on this kind of food. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
The fast-

culture has flourish drastically over the past decade, mainly due to easy availability and advertisements. While some believe that imposing extra taxes would help in reducing its consumption, others argue Use synonyms

. In my perspective, additional taxes on Linking Words
such
restaurants would only affect a particular class of the society; the remaining population can't even afford to eat there often.

To begin
with, the advocates of additional taxes on fast Linking Words

say that expensive restaurants would somehow demotivate the people to eat there frequently. Who would like to waste his precious earings on overpriced and unhealthy Use synonyms

? Use synonyms
Therefore

Additionally
, the money from those taxes could be utilized to cure the patients at a hospital, which may act as a positive step in the right direction. South Korea, Linking Words
for instance
, has 5% more taxes on the fast-Linking Words

restaurants, and outcome from these are used to cure diabetes and heart patients.
In contrary, it is argued by the other side that most of the people do not eat fast Use synonyms

places and eateries might not affect more than 80% of the population as they already cater there occasionally. Linking Words
Instead

.
To conclude, I certainly believe that higher taxes on junk Use synonyms

could push people to eat healthily; Use synonyms
