Not sure I agree with this prescription. Sen. McGovern’s foray into nutrition and diet policy led us to the War on Fat and food pyramid, both of which led us to where we are today: sick and obese and getting more of each. Rule of thumb: a government-led “war” on anything (fat, drugs, crime, poverty) usually ends up with the rest of us losing. ✌️
Lovely piece Rex
Nice read as I sit looking over the harbor lights in Dun Laoghaire
Just outside Dublin
