“After all, if the government can make you buy insurance, what limit is there to its power?”

I agree. I’m old enough to remember what a free country looked and felt like. It was a grand feeling that those of my generation took too much for granted. We coddled our children and made little milk toasts of them. We neglected to teach them that freedom needs constant vigilance to protect. In so doing, we created generations of people who would be scared witless if actual freedom, such as early generations knew, should suddenly befall them. The total responsibility for their own well being and quality of life would be much more than they could handle I’m afraid. People and nations have a way of getting what they wish for. There will soon be no responsibility required in America, only obedience to the all controlling government and that will suit most folks just fine.

Then you’re also old enough to remember the polio vaccines sugar cubes we all lined up for

And given the plethora of children dead and crippled and iron lungs etc we were all ecstatic to get the relief

There are two sides to the vaccines debate

I support them but I’m ambivalent about implantation

Ambivalent doesn’t mean apathetic....pity how it’s such a misused word
