Maybe a health chart should be created, and the companies that provide the products we consume should be taxed and penalized as follows. This would require a non-biased group of experts of course, but for example...
Naturally raised beef, with no growth hormones or antibiotics = no extra taxes or penalties.
Modified beef, filled with growth hormones and antibiotics = extra taxes and penalties.
Drinks sweetened with real sugar = no extra taxes or penalties.
Drinks sweetened with corn syrups and/or poisonous sweeteners = extra taxes and penalties.
Bread products made with whole grains = no extra taxes or penalties.
Bread products made with processed flour = extra taxes and penalties.
This could force the companies that provide our food to think twice before poisoning us, as their profits will be higher if their products are healthier.
Just a thought....
