The government literally tells you what to eat and wear. And thank god... since without those laws we would eat the worst and toxic foods and wear toxic and low quality clothes.

> wear toxic and low quality clothes

uhm...that might be a bad example. winks towards shein, temu, fast fashion in general

and thinking for a bit longer - corn syrup/sugar in general is not toxic but it certainly is not that healthy either, and it's got big lobbies and large amounts of money behind it to influence the government.

Yeah, that's a good point as well. We would certainly be much worse off in an Anarcho-Capitalist/Libertarian world.
