I'm not a politician and I don't go far in my proposals. That would be for someone else who is sufficiently motivated in that direction and convinced enough that government regulation of unchecked capitalism is a necessary part of the processes of government and capitalism to extend the protection against the marketing of harmful agents to children to include food products that cause nothing but obesity and attention-deficit and other disorders. Realistically, these foods are as dangerous as cigarettes.
Free enterprise is everywhere limited in the real world. The excesses and danger of unregulated free enterprise began as a result of the lethal results of the first phase of the Industrial Revolution.
As those who pay attention to this forum are aware. I am in general, a proponent of capitalism and not of government intervention in our lives. I am interested however in continuing the practice of using government as our collective agent to wield power against the titanic forces of enterprise that negatively manipulate the population with no motive other than shareholder profit. There are other things more crucial to the survival and welfare of human beings than enterprise is willing or able to promote.
