And this translates into causing children to starve... how?
Again, your trying to tackle a problem stupidly, in a stupid way which only harms people.
Look at those reasons I listed that are some of the real reasons why people eat unhealthy. That should give you an idea on ACTUAL ways that help people to eat healthier.
None of them involve "force them to do it." and "ursurping parent primacy in a child's life."
Kids "always suffering" doesn't justify causing them to suffer significantly more for zero benefit on the basis that "if they were taught better by there parents they would be doing this already." You know... because if they were taught better by there parents to be doing it already.... they would be doing it already... such laws would be pointless.
So many completely useless laws are made that do nothing but make people suffer based on such logic. It's ironic, because these laws mirror very much the "work for welfare" laws you despise so much.
If i get more time later i'll go in depth in ways that would help, but I thought it would be self evident from the post.
