>>But kids can walk down the hall at school spewing measles or whatever, because they are allowed a waiver.
Yes, and everyone that chose to have the vaccine would be protected, wouldn’t they? Who would be at risk? The people that opted out...I have no problem with that.
I believe the govt had NO right to force any child to take ANY vaccine...but I can at least see the logic in working very hard to have most people vaccinated against things that are easily transmitted by casual contact in a school setting...the HPV doesn’t fit that criteria. The only reason it was done was to line the pockets of Merck shareholders...and Perry did their bidding, and no one will ever convince me otherwise.
There is NO conservative argument in support of what Perry did. NONE. ZIP. ZERO. If Perry can try to force kids to have the HPV vaccine, ‘because its for their own good’, why isn’t it OK for Obama to force people into govt manadated health insurance ‘for their own good’ Perry blew it. Period. He can try to explain it away anyway he wants, but everyone knows it was crony capitalism at its worst. Conservatives wouldn’t accept it from Obama, we shouldn’t accept it from Perry either. No free pass just because he is supposedly on the same team...at least not from me.
Ok. Well, the state didn't force any child to take any vaccine. Since there was always an opt-out for the Gardasil as well as for the measles, then only those who opted-out would've been at risk.
So you've answered my question.
It had nothing to do with "strong arming" tactics of the government, and it has nothing to do with the Obamacare mandate(because there are no opt-out exceptions there.)
You have constructed a simple, comfortable mental satisfaction and anyone who challenges it just makes you hit the caps-lock. Got it.

How was anyone being “forced” into the vaccine? There was an opt out.
