Band 7

In 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 with this opinion?

Issues related to fast
food
 are frequently discussed these days. It is argued that governments should release a higher
tax
 on fast
food
 because of increasing fast
food
 consumption that can lead to health problems. I firmly disagree with
this
 assertion and the explanation will be shown. The principal reason is that
tax
 is not the root of the problem. To explain,  A higher

food
tax
 paid to governments will impact on rising product prices because producers need equal their benefits.
As a result
, some people especially poor people cannot effort to consume
this
 kind of foodstuff. In fact, most consumers of
this
 meal in some countries are The poor.
For instance
, the majority consumer of Hungry Jack, Australian convenient diet, is labour because of its cost as well as size. An additional point is that higher
tax
 can result in some sectors of the industrial productions ;
such
 as local farm and employee.
In addition
, workers may be laid off since producers need to reduce the cost of the productions.
This
 means that higher
tax
 rarely affects the middle and upper-class people which are the great proportion of fast
food
 consumption in many countries but directly affect the poor class. Generally, people opt to eat convenient stuff as

 can easily eat. Most people have not concerned about their health problems.
Hence
, individuals should be more educated about the effect of fast
food
 on their bodies rather than receive a higher
tax
. In conclusion, getting a higher
tax
 on fast
food
 is not a suitable way to tackle the problem of getting too much fast
food
 in the countries.
Therefore
 individuals and governments should share responsibilities to cope with
this
 issue.
