Do you find this question ridiculous? Is it rational to ban fast food advertisements? Throw in your thoughts here! I for one think its irrational. I doubt it would make any difference in changing people's craving for fast food.

I don't think government's should have to baby-sit people. If anything there should be laws agains public health funds being used to treat obesity or related disorders, because it is everyone making that personal choice to eat like fat kids getting into the cookie jar. There is no one to blame but oneself - if a person gets fat because of commercials, I think they are a stupidity hazard and should be sent to an island where they can't ruin life for the rest of us. OK, just kidding on that last one. But I do think we are all as adults responsible for what we choose to eat, and what we feed our kids.
