I consider the obesity epidemic a failure of free markets to offer healthy food without government oversight and a failure of individual freedom to choose better foods for themselves.

Yes, I know it's not completely free market and choosing healthy is not possible sometimes, but the point stands. Even with all gov interventions we have had, the market should have solved this.

Now RFK Jr is literally pitching more regulation to make America healthy again.

No. No. A thousand times no. It's a result of government intervention!

Ag markets are subject to *massive* intervention in the US, both on the supply side and the demand side!
