When debating issues like this in my mind, I frequently flip-flop. I can argue both sides. On one side, I don't want a corporation taking advantage of the consumer by using immense resources to exploit a flaw in human behavior. On the other hand, I don't want the government deciding what is right and wrong for me. In doing so, the government draws an arbitrary line and uses it to promote and also defend its actions, ultimately limiting my rights. This whole Happy Meal debate would be a non-issue if consumers didn't want Happy Meals. It turns out they do, so work-arounds work just like prohibition did not eliminate alcohol from our culture. The government is elected to serve and represent the people. The people want Happy Meals (and alcohol) (and drugs sourced from Mexico).
