Just FYI, that wasn't my idea at all. I would tax unhealthy food companies and give incentives to those that produce natural, healthy foods. When the market corrects itself (no one would pay $20 for a McDonalds meal), we'll be left with better options.
I see this as the same as taxing companies that pollute. Just because a company pollutes our arteries instead of our air doesn't make it any less pollution.
