today,many poeple are suffering from health problms because of fast food the gouvernement should tax higher fast foud what is your opinion about this?
Fast
food
is a staple of modern living. It can be very a very attractive proposition for people with busy lives, as it saves one from needing to spend time cooking. Use synonyms
However
, fast Linking Words
food
Use synonyms
consumption
has been linked to a myriad of Use synonyms
health
problems and to higher usage of Use synonyms
health
services. To be able to cope with Use synonyms
this
increase in Linking Words
health
expenditure, some experts argue that fast Use synonyms
food
should be taxed at a higher rate. I agree with Use synonyms
this
approach because it has been proven to work in other public Linking Words
health
issues Use synonyms
such
as smoking.
Just like fast Linking Words
food
Use synonyms
consumption
, smoking is a public Use synonyms
health
concern. For many years, governments saw ever-increasing Use synonyms
rates
of smoking-related diseases. It became a pressing issue and many ideas and proposals were discussed as a potential solution to Use synonyms
this
problem. In the end, a vast majority of countries decided on two main strategies to curb smoking. Linking Words
First
, a blanket ban on tobacco advertisement, and Linking Words
second
, an increase in taxation for tobacco products.
The increase in taxation meant that tobacco products became too expensive for many consumers. At the most basic level, Linking Words
this
meant fewer people were able to purchase products for smoking. The higher Linking Words
tax
Use synonyms
rates
Use synonyms
also
allowed the government to raise funds for the specific purpose of treating tobacco-related diseases like lung cancer. These measures have been widely successful, smoking Linking Words
rates
are down and the incidence and mortality of lung cancer have decreased over the years.
Fast Use synonyms
food
poses a similar problem to smoking. Individual decisions have an impact on the Use synonyms
health
system. It stands to reason that by applying the lessons from the fight against lung cancer, we can see some success in curbing the impact of fast Use synonyms
food
Use synonyms
consumption
. Higher Use synonyms
tax
Use synonyms
rates
for fast Use synonyms
food
would make them more expensive and Use synonyms
thus
not as attractive to the consumer. Some of the income from the higher Linking Words
tax
can be used to treat diseases related to fast Use synonyms
food
Use synonyms
such
as diabetes.
In summary, a Linking Words
tax
on fast Use synonyms
food
should be implemented. In my opinion, it is a good option to decrease fast Use synonyms
food
Use synonyms
consumption
. I believe it should be paired with new legislation to limit fast Use synonyms
food
advertisement to attain similar success to that of anti-smoking campaigns.Use synonyms
