Australia vs anti-vaxxers

[cnsaguy]

Australia wins,

The Australian government soon will stop welfare payments to parents who refuse to vaccinate their children, a decision that comes just months after hundreds of people in the United States were affected by the largest U.S. measles outbreak in decades.

They need to take it a step forward and require drug testing.

Wayne, that would be unconstitutional.

This is one of the areas i differ with libertarians. If you go to a government school you need to be vaccinated. If you want to make an exception for religious reasons or your own retarded personal reasons then you need to go to a religious school or private school.

That's fine as long as the government then gives you the money to go to said private or religious school that you kicked into the system. Not the cost of coverage, just giving you your share back.

No, they dont have to give you s#!t. you are making a personal choice and the government doesnt have to get involved in all of your personal choices, but they do need to protect the public good...
