[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s so stupid to think you are free while you have to go through trouble of hunting down healthy foods on sale and spending compounded hours cooking so your kid doesn’t eat junk every day at school and educating people how they should not eat outside their house.

No one does this in France. No one goes around saying “Larla, you lazy slob,  shouldn’t eat in a cafe because you’re sacrificing quality for convenience” because the food in a cafe is going to be healthy.  No one thinks of sending kids lunches to school because their lunches are well balanced and healthy.  See how easy it is to live like that?

The government is us. We decide how we want to live as a country.  We set the standards.

You are right, but you have to understand that [b]the PPs in this thread bleating in about personal choice are addicts who are panicking at the thought of government regulation of junk food. They will fight tooth and nail for continued free access to their drug of choice.[/b]

When the government finally stepped in and regulated tobacco -- after probably millions of deaths, but they finally did it -- there was a lot of very similar commentary from nicotine addicts. You can read the history of nicotine regulation and it's practically a guidebook to what is going on with junk food now. [/quote]

You seem really, really confused. [/quote]

And you are behaving exactly like addict you are.[/quote]

I'm not the poster you are responding to here, but you ARE confused.  Why would you assume people disagreeing with you are "addicts"?  I for one am slim and in good health because I make good choices, so am certainly not an "addict."  Many people here are trying to help you.  Listen to them.[/quote]
