Personal choices and personal responsibility. It's not anyone else's fault but my own for eating fast food or going back for free refills. Placing the blame on the government or food industry is outrageous. On the same hand, the government shouldn't be responsible for putting restrictions or bans on my personal choices. Even if it's my "best interest", that is my decision to make. Too many people lack responsibility, though, and want to place blame elsewhere. That behavior disgusts me. If we, as a country, started making ourselves accountable for our own actions... We'd all be better off. I personally don't need the government or anyone else to tell me drinking sugary drinks is bad for me, but I guess some people do.
