I suppose.
I’m not anti-vaccine. But I think this issue raises legitimate issues for a Conservative.

I don’t need to live in a perfectly safe world. That is only achieved through tyranny. And even then, it is not achieved.
I’m not interested in building Utopia.
I’m not trying to live forever.

I am interested in being responsible, and caring for my kids.

There is an interesting line here — on the one hand, use government to force people to be safe and responsible so that we can have a more wonderful world, and on the other hand, allow people to exercise self-determination and make choices based on their own beliefs.

My own choice is pro-vaccine. But I am not interested in making other people follow my lead.
