In some countries an increasing number of people are suffering from health problems as a result of eating too much fast food. It is therefore necessary for governments to impose a higher tax on this kind of food. To what extent do you agree or...

In this day and age, people have very busy lives, so they choose fast food to save time and money. but Statistics indicate that millions of people are suffering from diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol...as a result of eating too much fast food. Yet, whether or not governments to impose a higher tax on this kind of food for reasons I will outline below.

First and foremost, almost all people savor fast food are middle class, especially, worker. They spend a lot of times for work. They do not have time to prepare the meals. moreover, With so little money, it's hard to get along. The most important thing is cheap, but The meal is full of nutrients. There's nothing else, This is fast food. One possible reason for this is fast food is far cheaper than fresh produce. Although They know that fast food is not good for the health; they can’t afford to buy healthy food. If they must pay higher taxes on fast food, they will lead to poverty and face further hardships.

Another point I would like to make is that many countries in the world such us Australia, USA,... they have succeeded in preventing health problem by imposing higher taxes. Less and less the fast food shops open, in addition, it’s quite a long way from center. Therefore, The number of people contracting the disease has greatly reduced.

For these reasons, I feel strongly that, it’s essential that shopkeeper’s fast food pay higher taxes. In other words, this mean will restrict the appearance fast food shops so that they always have a sense of physical well-being.
