Where is free speech? WikiLeaks is banned then comes plain cigarette packaging. What's wrong with the Food Acts?
Obesity is a lifestyle choice, no difference from people who take up extreme sports, or practise as snake catcher.
If we are fair dinkum about teaching those who can't help themselves, then let those people who consume excess fatty foods, sugar, alcohol or anything that are classified as health hazard pay their related medical treatment out of their own pockets. The public health system and Medicare WILL not be responsible. If they can't pay, they will have to suffer due to their own stupidity.
As a marketer, I protest strongly about plain packaging. Being different is fundamental to brand / product differentiation. Do we expect more generic brand foods in every food outlet?
I don't like to see Australia to become one of those Communist countries where freedom of speech and expression are premium.
Are we going to see banning of Google? Will there be forced closure of McDonalds, Hungry Jacks or KFC unless their products are fat-reduced? Is this the end of Australian sugar and butter industries?
Please publish this comment - just to show that free speech is NOT dead!
