We tried a few decades of letting vendors feed us crap food, and it's led to an obesity explosion, maybe that's the problem.

Let's give a few decades of strict control over food suppliers a try, and if that doesn't work, maybe we could look into alternatives.

Why not both? Nobody wanted seatbelts until they were forced to use them, maybe we could try forcing people to eat safer food.
