Evil flourishes in the darkness. If you care about these women, about our country, and about this issue, this should pass with flying colors

  42. Also between a rock and a hard place on Trump’s appeal to SCOTUS on tariffs.

    As a firm believer in free trade, free markets, free enterprise and the benefits of international commerce, I abhor any trade policy based on tariffs and trade wars and the failed protectionist agenda of the AFL-CIO/big labor fatcats of the last 70 years.

    I would like nothing less for all tariffs to be sh-t canned and have the US as a beacon of free trade in the world instead of the “we are an island, let’s kill international commerce” mentality.

    However, I don’t believe the tariffs are illegal, I do think the administration has the right to implement them, as opposed to just considering them self defeating and wrong.

    So I am forced to hope SCOTUS rules the right way and that the administration would then reverse this horrible policy on its own.

    The former is more likely than the latter.

    I think we’ve gone a little overboard on required vaccines for children and we need to study the side effects.

    To contrast this from when Bitter and I were young men – Every baby today is given about 70 doses of 16 mandatory vaccines (per CDC). How did babies survive in the 1980s with about half the doses of only 7 vaccines?

    We did just fine back then and I think we were healthier, but that’s just anecdotal from my family experience. I totally agree we should leave the decision up to the parents on most of these new vaccines

    It was considered part of growing up. It probably provided a lot of natural immunity and nobody I knew had any long term consequences. Scarlet fever does have risks, it can damage your heart, but funny enough there is no vaccine for it.
