In order to discourage consumers from eating unhealthy fast food, the government is considering placing a tax on all fast food sales. Which of the following statements is

◦ The tax on fast food will likely increase the demand for home cooked meals.
◦ A tax on fast food will only be effective if demand is perfectly inelastic.
