If the parents of a child don't vaccinate their children without a valid medical reason, they should receive reduced government benefits (if any) and not be permitted to enrol their child in a public school.
There, I said it.

Yet parents with kids who are allergic to every day products like peanut butter are allowed to complain and get entire school districts changed because their kid dies from peanut products being within 1,000 yards of them. Yeah, no, I think the weak links should be separated, not the other way around.

Yes a society of natural selection! This idea is so pure and raw! [spoiler]and edgy[/spoiler] We could have a the perfect society! We'd deliberately expose EVERYONE to SMALL POX and the survivors get to live and the dead, well, it has taken care of itself.

Replace Small Pox with AIDS and I'm sold.

Okay, go out and prick yourself with dirty heroin needles. Be the example we can live by.

I WILL AND WILL SPREAD MY GIFT TO THE WORLD.

How do you manage to get through life being this stupid?
-
There's a difference between being born with an ailment and being able to catch one. Getting vaccinated and banning peanuts are both preventative measures.

So is isolating the person at risk. Rather than change the daily lives of the many to compensate for the weaknesses of the few, the few should change their lives to adhere to the needs of the many. They are the ones with the problem. Society as a whole should not be forced to bow to their demands.

Oh no, I can't have peanut butter on my sandwich. How will I ever recover from this drastic life change?

Harsh.. but its the truth.. we can't help everyone.. but we can either help the few.. or the majority.

It's called a compromise. I don't think that anyone is so pathetic that they can't go a few hours without something like peanut butter. The fact of the matter is that you shouldn't exile someone because they are different. Segregation like that is not a good thing; forcing them to go to specialised schools or to be homeschooled isn't the right way to address a problem. If you had an allergy like that would you want to be exiled from your peers and friends?
-
If I had an allergy like that I'd much rather exclude myself from people rather than force everybody else to change their daily eating habits to suit my needs.
-
No, you probably wouldn't. I don't think many people want to grow up without friends or a proper schooling.
-
Please. How hard would it be to eat lunch in a separate room outside of the cafeteria if you are that allergic to something a lot of people eat? Excluding yourself for 30 minutes a day from everybody so that the rest of the school doesn't have to change their eating habits is hardly a social suicide.
-
It's so strange to hear these arguments be used by idiots to this day. I never though arguments like this would be used against people with allergies. Tell me, do you feel the same about people of different colour or sexuality? You're using the same arguments.

We should surgically attach Co-60 to their lips, nostrils, and orifices as well (to sterilize pathogens). If they're too dim to use vaccines, there's a higher-than-average chance they believe in hormesis.

Amen.
