After watching the video of Anne Cooper about food in schools from the TED website I learned some interesting facts. She was somewhat agressive in her argument about how we are allowing the new generation to become sick. We allow the food inspection corporations to feed children and people contaminated food. I was astounded how the USDA uses about a dollar a day to feed children in schools around the US. People are getting sick and children are getting sick, yet the USDA rather pay more for other unnecessary projects.
She explains how children in today's generation will have a shorter life span than the older generations. Cooper also adds that if we continue down this path our medical systems will have great changes for the worst. I could not believe the kind of unjust treatment, we the people, have sufferen due to bad decisions by the government. It is not hard to believe since we are busy wasting more money and time on things that are really not that important.
I was inspired into making better decissions on the way I vote, and to also focus more on things that are necessary for our future and health. It is really hard to believe on these ideals when so many people are making such bad decisions for our country, by allowing these kind of actions, or some people are simply ignorant. If it was my choice I would change many things about the way our communities are ran today, but I am not a governor or a president. Overall I found the information on all of the fast food TED videos useful for my upcoming research paper, and would recommend it for others in their research.
I agree. We should really participate in improving the quality of food in our schools by makiing our voice count in the polls.
