You might have heard recently that Measles, after being eradicated in the US 14 years ago, [url=http://gizmodo.com/measles-are-back-in-new-york-city-thanks-to-anti-vax-ab-1543787681]has returned with cases reported in New York, San Diego, Boston, and Vancouver as well[/url]. Given that the efforts of anti-vaccination groups seem to be unfortunately paying off, do you think there should be an added incentive for parents to vaccinate their children? Specifically, if a child is not vaccinated, the parent or guardian should receive fewer, or be less-eligible for, state-sponsored benefits and services, such as welfare payments, schooling (such as exclusion from enrolment), child care, etc... with the exception of medical, and only medical, reasons.

  • As IchEsseKinder said: [quote]Whatever happened with "M-MUH BODY" and "M-MUH PRO-CHOICE"? -blam!-ing hypocrites[/quote] I totally understand why people are angry with folks that don't vaccinate themselves or their children: They're risking the livelihood of other people for their own reasons, which is ultimately selfish. However, I think that liberals who support "women's rights to their own bodies", despite there being another body, are totally hypocritical.
