I personally don't think it makes him more qualified than those people. Do you?
I'm not sure why you included that fact that he's rich ("millions of dollars that nobody here will ever see"). Is that supposed to mean something? Britney Spears, Kid Rock and Mike Tyson all have millions of dollars that nobody here will ever see. Would you take medical advice from them?

I was responding to the first few posts about how he's just another celebrity who should STFU.
...and what exactly is he saying that even remotely resembles medical advice? It's an issue that hits close to home with him and he's doing his own research and posting what he believes in.
Isn't that exactly what everyone does here, on a daily basis, in the Flames section of this board? Are we GMs or Coaches? I'm willing to bet some of the most vocal people in that section haven't left their couches in years, yet they know exactly how to fix our power play.
Would people rather that celebrities who are in a position to get things heard just keep their rich little mouths shut instead? Who's going to raise the issue then? You? Someone else here? Me? Not very likely.
This world's progress would some to a screeching halt in a heartbeat, if everyone sat on their hands and kept their mouths shut.
(For the record, I know absolutely nothing about this issue. I'm only responding to the posts that claimed he should STFU because he's a celebrity, and the other post who said the same thing because he dropped out of high school. It's not like the guy's preforming rocket surgery or something. He's researched some things about vaccines and posted his opinion on them. Not exactly PhD material.)
