Band 9 Some people think government should subsidies food and vegetables to make healthy food cheaper. Other argues that tax should be set on unhealthy food.

Nowadays, people are consuming more unhealthy food and as a consequence of that their health is in danger. Many individuals opine that, if authorities will make basic food such as a fruit and vegetable cheaper, people will Stop eating it, while opponents of this view believe that imposing tax on junk food is the best idea. I will elaborate both the viewpoints in the following paragraph and will give my opinion. On the one hand, those who think that government should make basic food items such as fruits and vegetables affordable have some valid reasons. The main reason is that, junk food is more cheaper than health food. If government make such healthy food affordable than people will eat it rather than junk. Another reason is that such healthy food is very beneficial for persons health. So people will consume it more and their health will also improve due to its affordability. For example, in USA, authority has reduced price of fruits and got excellent result, 80% of individuals have started consuming it and their health also has improved due to that. On the other hand, there are plethora of causes why people reckon that it is best to impose tax on fast food. The main argument of fat tax is that, people's health is impacting badly due to their eating habits of junk food, if government impose tax, they will think twice before buying Such food and it is also beneficial for their well-being. To exemplify, study conducted by Delhi University's data shows that, in Japan, when government has imposed high taxes on fast food more than 50% of people has stopped eating it. To conclude, after weighing up on above mentioned argument, I think the best way is that adding tax on junk food. by imposing High tax on junk food government can improve people's health which not only beneficial for people but also important for nation.
