I don't disagree with the overall point of too much advertising, but it's not like a bunch of lawmakers got together and said "You know what, the profits of corporations are more important than (insert whatever here)".
I mean people are free not support companies that advertise to kids.
What do you suggest as a solution?

This is missing the point of the entire documentary. The point is that the companies attempt to subvert the parents ability to censor their kids exposure by literally going around the parents. There was a part in it showing how schools accept money in exchange for advertising opportunities.
