Great transition about how annoying Jimmy Fallon is (heeey stealing my bit!) and cracking a guitar over Jack Johnson's head. And HOOUHS!

And an Andrew Bird reference!

Nothing wrong with Jack Johnson either. He and Bill Evans got me through papers in college.

Ran out to get lunch and came back to ACTUARIAL CHARTS! Everything kills you!

Hey Dan

I'm not sure if this mole on my left ass check is a short term problem. Will you please tell me if I should be worried.

Peace and Love.

Why a vaccine segment?

Maybe because there are more than 100 cases of measles due to reckless anti-vaxxers.

Many Republican politicians are taking anti-vax stances, and have spoken up on vaccines in the last few days.

Chris Christie says we need balance in the debate, even though it's pretty clear that vaccines work, and do not cause autism. We don't need balance in the debate on whether or not the sun rises in the east, either.

Rand Paul says vaccines are an example of oppressive gov't, and parents should choose because freedom.

Sean Duffy (R-WI) says the issue is an oppressive state telling us what to do. He knows best what morals and values are right for kids, as if this topic has anything to do with morals or values.

This is going to get ugly as more and more people refuse to vaccinate their children. Reading a couple of crackpot websites that bend to your beliefs isn't "doing research".

Well they are all wrong. Vaccines should be mandatory. Period.

No, I don't feel like researching to prove my guess, but my guess is those same people screaming about freedom, et al, regarding a public health issue are concurrently ready to extoll the virtues of The (so-called) Patriot Act and militarized police.

I wonder if the measels "outbreaks" are located in areas where all those illegal immigrant children were "repatriated" to.

Can we be certain they had all their shots before being introduced to those towns and schools?

Not this freedom lover Don.

I have thought extensively about this issue. Obviously, you are an idiot to not get these vaccines, but I sure hate the government mandate. The government is already trying to make noise about health issues on what we should consume from banning happy meals, changing children's school lunch offering, and limiting drink portion sizes. The obesity epidemic that costs Medicare/Medicaid billions is going to put pressure on them regulating diet where ever they can. I hate going down this path.

Oh, so here we stand on that tricky balance of externalities where that cost of an activity is borne by all.

I just don't know.

I agree with you that limiting the size of sodas and fries is completely ridiculous, but that's apples and oranges to the vaccine discussion.

Source?

Links?

I'm genuinely interested in n these facts you have laid out.

Thanks.

I generally agree with you Denis in terms of government mandates and slippery slopes they can become. No political belief is right 100% of the time. The science behind vaccines and herd immunity is essentially unquestionable. The strength in vaccines lies in everyone being vaccinated.

Just because it's a government mandate? Do you have a better way to get people to protect one another -- and their own goddamn children -- from terrible, deadly diseases? Dan Bernstein shaming people on the radio doesn't seem to be enough.


The thing about a slippery slope is that it's a fallacy.

But hey, let's let them "choose" something based on science that was so incorrect the guy who did it was stripped of his license and the entire study thrown out!

As opposed to vaccines, hyperlinking to stuff on your C drive is generally agreed to be not effective.
