People in this country do not have a clue on how easily this government can move from a democracy to a central planner.
A prime example of how easy it is , is to look at the FED. Their role was to watch monetary policy and employment. They have moved quickly to the economy's central planner and many economists worry tha the FED is creating another bubble
People look at as the government is helping them
the government looks at it as people cannot choose wisely so we have to choose for them because they will always choose wrong

Glenn Beck once said something to the effect that the government will eventually do whatever the people can't do for themselves.
rubicon, we want smart people who can make wise decisions or at least not make poor decisions, but instead we have a population that is two thirds overweight and obese. So they are either ignorant and/ or undisciplined and therefore incapable of teaching their kids. So what Glen Beck said is coming true.
Kids need a good example to be set at school so they will learn the difference between good and bad.
Are you helping when you say that no one knows what's good or bad because "experts" always disagree? Do you seriously see that as being helpful? No wonder people are lost when it comes to making proper food choices. We live in a society where people are encouraged to just eat what they like.
