Policies and Health Behaviors

I need someone to help me with the question below.

Policy can be effective when influencing behavior, so why aren’t more policies passed to get people to adopt healthy behaviors? Consider issues of freedom, social justice, ethics, and behavior theories. Draw on examples from textbook reading events and your personal experience.
