Oh, I wasn’t missing your point. You made it very well and I agree with you. Most people on this site agree with you.

I was trying to point out the benefit of a far-out and unacceptable proposal. It makes what you really want more acceptable. In an adversarial situation, always ask for much more than you want or more than you think you can get. Trump does it all the time and it works.

RFK may really want more government control and health monitors for kids but he aint’s going to get it!

Ok, I get that and agree. My main concern is the people that call themselves Conservatives, and yet think it’s A-OK for more government restriction and control... because it’s RFK Jr. doing it for ‘da cheeldren’s health’ sake. It’s a slippery slope and they are sliding down it at turbo mode with their approvals. I’ll be nice and call it their tunnel vision. They’re not seeing the big picture.

And thanks for your optimism that he won’t succeed. Because I’m thinking that and worried that he will succeed.. if enough people agree with what he is doing.
