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 digsagree ?
There is an ongoing debate on whether the government should impose higher fines on unhealthy cuisine to deter the health-related problems caused by fast
food
.I strongly believe this
would result in a healthier lifestyle
among people
,however
,some people
believe this
could be a disadvantage
Nowadays, fast food
has become a staple diet for the population who are lazy or for those who don't have time to cook. This
could result in serious health complications such
as diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular problems,as a consequence
to the following it is important for the government to apply higher taxes which would prevent the community from buying fast food
on a daily basis,moreover
,as an alternative, families will start purchasing a healthier meal from the supermarket.For instance
, a middle-class family will consider buying edibles from the grocery store and start cooking at home,this
could educate the future generation to maintain healthy behaviour and occasionally buy fast food
.
on the other hand
, a higher tax could affect the life of middle-class families and lower-class families, as it would be difficult for them to afford fast food
from time to time. It would be unfair to ask people
who have a balanced lifestyle
to pay more for fast food
,for example
, a person who has been working hard at the gym would want to treat him/herself to some junk food
, unfortunately, it would be difficult as the prices have increased drastically.Another complication will be the fall of the economy of a country due to
the less purchase of fast food
In conclusion, a significant amount of people
might be affected by higher taxes on fast food
,however
,the disadvantage of not implementing taxes outweigh the advantage.The government should take the initiative in helping society to maintain a healthy lifestyle
,additionally
,as it is important to limit the purchase of fast food
its also
necessary to motivate people
to work out and not continue to have a sedentary lifestyle
