Again, I said I have no problem with public monies for immunization -- obviously, there are specific portions that have interests which are of greater public concern. When I was a little boy in school, I got public immunizations. I think that is a great idea.

But think about this -- there are lots of folks out there who are ignorant of nutrition. Give their kids stuff that will certainly make them unhealthy -- what can I do about that? Should the government "take over" the feeding of all children to make sure they have an EQUAL chance to be healthy -- you can extend such arguments until the STATE becomes your NANNY ...

Folks with freedom will do lots of things that impose large negative costs on society. Choose what you want -- liberty or a NANNY.
