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?
Nowadays, the public is fond of fast foods. Sometimes they overeat them and suffer from health problems
hence
, certain folks think that the government should impose a higher tax on Linking Words
this
food. Linking Words
However
, I completely disagree with Linking Words
this
idea, and we will discuss it more in today's essay.
Linking Words
Firstly
, If the imposed tax is higher, still some individuals will afford to have those foods. Linking Words
For example
, the higher class in the country will still be able to enjoy eatables like Pizzas and Burgers. Linking Words
Moreover
, they can Linking Words
also
be able to pay high medical bills for treatments, if any health condition arises.
Linking Words
Nevertheless
, it will be very much difficult for the lower and middle class to have Linking Words
such
meals if the tax is higher. Linking Words
For instance
, with the current excise duty on certain eateries, a few individuals still can't pay for fast foods from international franchises Linking Words
such
as McDonald's and Dominos. So, these human beings usually prefer home-cooked meals only, and they like to go out for lunch or dinner in hotels once in a while. So, visiting hospitals because of consuming outside food is not a problem for them.
To sum up, I think it is not the duty of the government to take care of every individual's health, as people are mature enough to think about what is good and bad for themselves. Increasing duties on food are not the ultimate solution, as both higher and lower-class people live in the society. It is a person's own responsibility to have control over what he is eating and how he is maintaining his fitness. There are plenty of other areas on which higher authorities should focus Linking Words
then
why we should increase their burden?Linking Words
