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 wht extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Fast
food
has been popularizing over the past few years around the world. But the fact is that many
people
get sick due to overconsuming fast
foods
. It is considered that the government should increase taxation on
such
foods
to control the problems faced by individuals. I disagree with
this
statement and will give my opinion. Recently, a trend has been followed to check in different restaurants and cafes by citizens , particularly the teenagers and the youth. They eat
foods
such
as burgers, pizzas, hot dogs etc.which contain a large number of calories.
As a result
, obesity becomes one of the problems among the young generation. Not only obesity but
also
different health issues like heart disease, kidney failure, and blood sugar are prominent.So to overcome these, imposing a tax on these
foods
should not be a solution. Because not everyone is involved in
such
activity.
In addition
, these taxes may be a burden to mass
people
. There will be a possibility to increase the price of other products if taxation on
food
is activated.
Moreover
, is it observed that,when taxes are counted on any product for the betterment of a nation, sometimes there is no effect of the tax on that item
.

For example
,
people
do not reduce the eating habit to which they are habituated. In the long run, the inflation rate would be risen because of high costing and
people
will have to suffer. What the government can do, is to create awareness among everybody so that they may consume less fast
foods
as well as fewer calories.
Thus
, health difficulties should be minimized. In conclusion, imposing and collecting taxes from the citizens or the
food
factories or the importers are not a good deal rather than making consciousness related to these
food
items. Restaurants and cafes may play a vital role to hang the calorie charts on the walls.
