Food Control??? Let's 1984 It!!!

On January 21st, I heard something on 680 News that really made me wonder. The governement really does control everything.
The government is now concerned about the obeisity in our country. North Americans are fat, and only getting fatter. The government has blamed the junk food ads rather than the people making the junk and the people eating the junk. As concerned government, they want to control the number of junk food ads that appear on t.v. They think that children see these ads and push for the food they see. While children do in fact ask for stuff they see on t.v. the government thinks that they can just start censoring anything they feel like.
I feel like our world is being controlled by the government. I am sure they have many secrets that they keep from the public. Has anyone actually looked around the world lately? Everything on the news has been a part of some movie involving government conspiracies. Controlling ads are like control freedom of speech in a small way.
I wonder when the government will break down and tell us that we are living the way they did in the novel 1984, By George Orwell. We may not be there all the way, but trust me, we are working towards it.


(1984 – Acknowledged by many as Orwell’s greatest masterpiece, 1984 is the haunting tale of a totalitarian world where basic human rights such as free speech are a thing of the past. Meanwhile, ‘Thought Police’ monitor the people’s every action and kidnap those who are caught acting in any way deemed to be ‘unorthodox.’ When Winston Smith decides to rebel against his own government, will he succeed in overthrowing them or become yet another victim of the Thought Police?)
