Can this stuff be made more healthy by adding nutrients and vitamins to it?
It can be argued that the type and amounts of food we eat is not healthy. If we are going to eat Junk Food anyway, should our government pass laws to force junk food manufactures to add extra vitamins and nutrients to their products?
The question is, would this food now be considered healthy? Would people eat more of the food since it now contains some goodness?
Unfortunately some people’s diets consist of Fast Food, snacks, candy and soda. Such diets may lead to malnutrition and by adding vitamins to this food may help those that really need it.
Can we use them anywhere we want?
We all take many things for granted and feel that no one should tell us what we should do. We make our own decisions and we have no one to answer to but our self. When should people step in, or when is it none of their business?
If a parent is in a car with their children, is it ok for them to light up a cigarette? After all, it is the parents’ vehicle. Since it is their property, they have the right to do whatever they want. Besides, if they roll down the window the smoke will go right outside.
Little Billy sitting in the back does not care as he is likely busy snacking, sleeping, looking outside, or is playing a game. Billy is use to the smoke and it does not really bother him.
After all, we do live in a free country. If the child does not mind, are there any good reasons why a parent should or should not smoke inside a car?

Should some things be left out of out public schools?
There has been some concern about whether intelligent design should be taught in public schools. Some believe that a preexisting intelligence created the universe versus evolution, the theory in which organisms naturally evolved into everything we see around us today. Courts have ruled that intelligent design has no place in a public schools, which would account for the creation of the majority of private and religious schools.
