That's actually also a health issue. In most EU countries you couldn't even stuff yourself with the crap that's allowed to be sold in the US.

Both of these!

With the healthcare being paid for by taxes, there is a lot more incentive for governments to push healthy eating. It also means that policies for bike/walking routes pay off more.

Which to some of us is another reason to resist taxpayer-funded healthcare. Government really doesn't need more incentive to overstep its bounds and interfere in our personal lives.

In most EU countries the alternatives are so much better that you wouldn't want to.
