The Illogic of Anti-vaxxers amply on Display within the GOP

Rand Paul: Parents 'Own' Children, Not the State from The Hill
"Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) doubled down on his position that most vaccines should be voluntary, suggesting Monday that mandated immunization is an example of government overreach. "The state doesn't own your children," Paul said in an interview with CNBC's "Closing Bell." "Parents own the children, and it is an issue of freedom and public health." "
Deeper ... and deeper ... and deeper.  Paul lives in a world where being profoundly irresponsible has no consequences for others or for larger society.  Sorry, dude.  But, hey -- keep going!  This guy has spouted so much Ron-Paul-lite B.S. that this is only edge of the toilet bowl we will see much more of over the next two years. -- Nuggetsman
