--S-A-- Merck - no taxes and forced vaccinations too?

[Guest guest]

That does sound awful. But no issue is that black and white. Have you heard

that many focus on the family type groups are opposing the idea of mandetory HPV

vaccination because they say, get this, the vaccine encourages premarital sex?

Has anyone thought to inform these people that HPV is not solely sexually

transmitted?

The only thing that seems clear to me in all this mess of twisted politics we

refer to as a democratic process is that no one cares about the health and well

being of Americans, or for that matter, of humanity. Its all about special

agendas, profit margins and pushing our morals onto others. I wish people would

stop bickering for once and just do what it takes to grow together as a society.

As Helen Lovejoy has so accurately put it so many times, " Won't somebody please

think of the Children?!?! "

So Merck does not want to pay taxes but is not above getting the

governor of Texas to try to have mandatory vaccinations of school girls?

 

Ah well, at least they gave us Vioxx!
