Would I like it if everything was easy and nothing was hard?

Absolutely!

Is sitting around waiting for that to happen going to work?

Absolutely not!

There's two questions being conflated; should someone have to carefully watch their diet, or spending, or browsing? It's easy to argue that they shouldn't, and give examples of things that would make it so they don't (remove combo meals above a certain caloric amount, make credit hard to access, etc).

None of that changes that we live in the here and now, and we can inflict minor change on society, but major changes on ourselves.
