For every 10 commercials for junk food, would you favor adding one commercial describing the health benefits of leafy green vegetables, legumes, whole grains, and whole fruits? Right now, all we get to see are artery clogging recipes on PBS. They say that taste is paramount. The airways were supposed to be shared for the public good, but very little of the time is doing good for people. It serves to increase corporate profits and executive bonuses. Who would pay for it? Impose a tax on junk food advertisement of 10%. That money would fund healthy eating advertising from a local club. "Not only who would pay for it but why?" Industry is spending hundreds of millions of dollars on disinformation campaigns. This is experienced subliminally by most Americans hundreds of times each year. "Can folks no longer think for themselves?" The food industry is working hard to control the consensus reality for our elementary school students and faculty. A huge number of students with allergies to dairy are encouraged to drink milk and do not connect their symptoms with their diet. The advertisers spend hundreds of thousands of dollars each year on scams like the 'food pyramid.' The marketing dollars are blatantly deceptive. Milk is not required for a healthy diet and in most cases are damaging to the typical American.

America is the land of the free. You made a choice for yourself to be healthy. Its up to everyone to make a choice. do I want comfort or health? Do I want to feel good now and pay later, or do I eat carrots and stay out of the hospital? The answer is NO! People want to make money. If your caught slipping then 2009 will be like 2010!

Not only who would pay for it but why? Can folks no longer think for themselves? I get your point, and its valid, but people make poor choices with their diet because of laziness, convenience, etc. Putting a commercial about eating fruits right behind the McDonalds one isnt going to help much. What would be great is instead of using models in the commercials use a picture of Morgan Spreelock (sp?) instead. When you see what 25 days of fast food can do to you it might change your eating habits a little. Or maybe not.

If you ask me, As bad as it is, I wouldn't be surprised if everyone who is someone is getting lots of money from the drug industry including the media, and they control what we see in favor of this dictatorship known as the "BIG PHARMA" Big money talks and we get the shaft every time. Please don't get me started! We need someone to represent us hard working law abiding citizens. Because our pocket books are drying up and they won't stop until it is!
