You don’t seem to understand all the implications. If the government gives tax breaks and incentives to corporations for producing unhealthy foods, then it is complicit in the problem. The government should not be subsidizing industry, and damn sure not bad industry. Why does the government let lobbyists decide what chemicals are ok to put in food? Many of these chemicals cause or contribute to obesity, so if the government’s actions contribute to obesity, then isn’t the government responsible for its behavior? The solution seems clear to me, make the info available to the public (which it is currently not, due to lobbyists) and then let the public use the market place to influence the food supply. Keep the damn government out of it altogether, other than making the truth available to the public.
