Laws that protect citizens from outside influences are acceptble.

Laws that "protect" citizens from our own decisions in favor of what thr govt. says is best for us, then takes our money to impliment it, is not acceptable.

Surely if people make shitty disease ridden food then people can choose not to buy it. Let the market decide.

Um... you haven't understood lowing's point.

If there were a big fat label saying "WARNING: MAY CONTAIN SALMONELLA" on every product, then your point would hold, but as it is, the consumers are assuming that they are not buying shitty disease ridden food but rather a product that they can eat without dying. A difference.
The paradox is only a conflict between reality and your feeling what reality ought to be.
