State-mandated vaccination program is by definition the government take over of health care. The Republican party talking points have been that medical decisions are between you and your doctors and not some bureaucrats in Washington (CDC). I mean if they have to acquiesce with the mandatory vaccine program, I mean what’s next? The real government take over health care program, Obamacare? LOL..[/quote]
That’s silly. Vaccinations are an important part of healthcare. It is not all of healthcare. 110 years ago, the supreme court ruled that state mandated vaccinations are legal. And smallpox was eradicated. Do you think that was a bad idea?
If the Republican party really supported policies that insisted that healthcare be between patient and doctor, they wouldn’t have passed more than 230 laws limiting abortion in just the last 4 years.
(Obamacare, btw, has been a rounding success, far exceeding even the most optimistic projections. Without the government getting involved in healthcare, only in the access to healthcare.)
