Forcing anything on anyone is a slippery slope and I don't think it should be taken lightly.
Ok, so vaccines have the ability to saves lives. Great. I'm fully up to date on my vaccinations. But to force it on others, I just don't know if I can get behind that. That said, I'm a young healthy adult and don't get a flu shot so I already know I'm a bad guy in the eyes of many.
If we're talking health effects, everyone knows that alcohol is bad for you and is directly related to thousands (more?) of deaths a year. Should we try Prohibition again? Yes, I related them and no, I don't think that's a stretch. Frankly it's shocking that in a world where kids are having their lunches screened for junk food that we still allow adults to consume poison.
