The law passed in my native Illinois is a well made decision, and well based. The power of choice is available to everyone, and that includes yuor diet. The power to regulate diet and what you, a citizen, consumes is not the power of the government or the state, but rather you, the individual. (and presumably the responsible one) Our diets and the physical condition that follows is in the end, our decision.

i think that when mcdonalds is advertising their meals they should advertise more the salads and not the greasy burgers. if they have so many people saying that their food is a cause of obesity then why wont they make a heart-healthy menu, they have a dollar menu for the people not wanting to pay for the whole meal why not have a menu for the people who dont want to pay for their doctor bills after they get clogged arteries.

I stongly agree with the Common Sense Consumption Act because I feel that it is common sense to now when to stop eating fast food because if your over eating of course your going to be obese. Thanks for the information its going to help me on my final exam for English.
