Why does the government and big business want to control what we eat? It's all about money right?

control what we eat, our weight, our health, our well being? This is America right, land of the free? I understand people need to be controlled to a certain extent. I also know this is great and we have many more freedoms than many other countries. That's all well and good and I appreciate that. But how far is too far and when does this country start to not be the land of the free? Like I said, I know human's cannot be fully free, we can't have anarchy and have people hurting each other. Do we at least have the right to consume,salt, sugar, butter, fat? Smoke cigarettes in our homes, cars, property, and outside? Do we have the freedom to endanger our health and shorten our life spans by doing things considered unhealthy?You think we choose what we eat? No, the government all uppy on eating right, not becoming obese, losing weight. Whatever we eat now, made with grain, honey, less sugar, low fat, sunflower oil. I want my salty buttery fattning chips back.Hey bacon's not lean thats good!Why does the government and big business want to control what we eat? It's all about money right?
yes, everything must have the spin that it is being done for our own good / protection , but the bottom line , is always about how they get a return on the money.Why does the government and big business want to control what we eat? It's all about money right?
You can eat what you want. No one's stopping you. The government provides guidelines and stuff, but last I checked there are no food police going around.
it's always been about the money. the government doesn't want people eating the wrong things because of the health care costs they have to pay. believe me, if health care is socialized, we're all screwed!!!! the government will probably start writing tickets for over-exposure to the sun. the gov. doesn't want to pay for the melanoma treatments.
