Professor

Doctor Smith Today we’re going to discuss whether the government should tax unhealthy products, such as sugary drinks and junk food. On one hand, taxing these products could discourage people from consuming them and reduce health problems. On the other hand, some argue that such taxes unfairly target lower-income families who may rely on these products as affordable sources of food. If you had to choose, would you support or oppose taxing unhealthy products? Why?

Student A

Amy I support the idea of taxing unhealthy products. These products are often high in sugar, salt, and fat, which can lead to serious health problems such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. As you said, by taxing these products, the government can discourage people from consuming them and resolve some of these health issues. Moreover, the revenue generated from such taxes can be used to fund advertising campaigns that promote healthy eating habits.

Student B

Rory I disagree. I believe that such taxes are unfair to families that don’t have a lot of money. Wealthy people will not care about the taxes and their habits won’t change. Additionally, if these taxes are implemented people might try to save money by purchasing lower-quality products that are cheaper in the first place. That means they could suffer even more health problems.

I oppose taxing unhealthy food taxes, and I strongly agree with Rory’s viewpoint that these taxes impose heavy burden on the underprivileged people due to the possibly increasing living cost. In addition, in my view, in order to promote the public health, the most effective way is to raise the health awareness of citizens. To be more specific, the government should post more public service advertisements which promote the significance of healthy diet on TV, social media and their websites. What’s more, it is the government’s duty to encourage the food suppliers to offer more fresh and healthy food and make their price lower, which can be achieved by giving them policy support and attractive bonus. A pertinent case in this point is that in Singapore, there is a “healthy food” policy which means the government gives the organic fruit suppliers a bonus of 5,000 Singapore dollars each month, resulting in a lower price in organic fruit. Therefore, more customers are willing to buy them and the customers get a healthy diet at the same time.

While I understand the potential benefits of taxing unhealthy products, I must side with Rory in opposing such measures. Imposing taxes on these items disproportionately affects lower-income families, who may rely on affordable food options, even if they are less healthy. Instead of taxation, I believe that raising public health awareness and encouraging healthier food choices would be more effective in promoting overall well-being. The government could invest in public service campaigns that emphasize the importance of a balanced diet and work with food suppliers to increase the availability of fresh, nutritious options at affordable prices. For instance, Singapore's "healthy food" policy provides financial incentives to organic fruit suppliers, resulting in lower prices for consumers and increased consumption of healthier foods. By focusing on education and accessibility rather than punitive measures, we can foster a more equitable approach to improving public health. (146 words)
