To these major business companies, it would be that much harder to provide food at a lower price, where everyone can afford it. Everyone has a different budget, some less than others. If the companies are forced to keep some foods to an extremely low price where everyone can afford it, it will be severely difficult to maintain a profit. If they don’t make a profit, then they will eventually be forced to shut down, and therefore many companies will not last very long.
In contrast, the major effect of this proposition would be the change in eating habits. Many people would resort to the healthy food instead of the cheap junk food. They will do this because if they eat too much junk food, they will get sick and have to buy expensive medicine. This is why people would eat healthy food over junk food. Overall, having healthy food at a price where everyone can afford it is more cost-efficient in the long run.
Also, eating healthy foods will increase one’s health. If healthy foods are accessible to everyone, then everyone can live healthier. Living healthier is a good thing because an individual who is healthy will have a higher life expectancy, and they will live longer.
The positive effects of making healthy foods accessible to everyone is much greater than the negative effects. People will be able to eat healthier and not spend any extra money.

Should Access to Healthy Food be a Right for Everyone?
To anyone in the right mind with a heart and soul, the answer to whether healthy food being a right for everyone or not would be a hands-down yes. Obviously, to them, it makes complete sense to do so. However, there are some who would have a different answer, especially food companies and restaurant chains.To these major business companies, it would be that much harder to provide food at a lower price, where everyone can afford it.
