I believe that there are barriers that need to be discussed. For the most part its not up to the government to dictate marketing campaigns and advertising strategies with the exception of truly harmful products. IE smokes and Liquor. But they didn't limit how they advertise they dictated who the ads were created for and to an extent the content of the ads.

With Cigarettes they limited the medium that they could be advertised in and that there had to be warnings in the ads.

Same with Liquor.

But for fast food for example its far different.

Its up to the parents to say no for example, not the government.

Its not up to the government for the most part to dictate the use of media for marketing.

I get that people complain and I get that people sit there and b5tch about advertising in schools or mobile phones or via viral videos on the net, but as a parent and as a child the only real freedom we have is to choose. Asking the government to step in and in reality restrict that right to choose is actually really wrong.
