Both the reading and the lecture discuss the policy of imposing high taxes on unhealthy products. The reading implies that the policy has a number of social benefits. However, the professor strongly disagrees with the reading. Accordingly, she gave three refutations.
First of all, the reading passage indicates that the taxes discourage people from indulging in unhealthy behaviors. Yet, the speaker severely challenges this theory by arguing that the high taxes may make people buy cheaper but low-quality unhealthy products. Moreover, cheaper but low-quality products may be more harmful to people's health. In other words, the high taxes cannot lead healthy behaviors.
Secondly, the reading suggests that the taxes are financially fair. Nonetheless, the scholar seriously contradicts this statement because this policy does not take the income into consideration. Also, the high taxes are more expensive to people whose income is low. As a result, this policy will create financial loading for people who have low income.
Last but not least, the passage mentions that the high rate of taxation on cigarettes significantly increases revenue for the government. Once again, the professor opposes this hypothesis by contending that the government will depend too much on the policy. In other words, the government does not want to lose the profit from this policy. Thus, the government will not establish the law such as preventing smoking in outdoor space.
In conclusion, the professor argues against each theory in the reading. That is to say, the policy imposing high taxes on unhealthy food does not have many social benefits.
