Parents jailed for not vaccinating kids
Vaccines are the most dangerous "accepted" practice in all of medicine. The latest vaccination outrage occurred in Prince George's County, Maryland where ‘believe it or not’ parents were actually told to appear in court and subject their children to on-the- spot, state-mandated vaccines of UP TO 17 DOSES - OR FACE IMPRISONMENT!! What's more, parents who ignored the court's demands were subject to a $50 fine for each day their child was "out of compliance" (i.e., not surrendering their Constitutional rights to the state), or up to 10 days in jail.
Which is more sickening? That this kind of outrage can occur without national outcry, or that it can happen about a 30-minute drive from the front steps of the rotunda of the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C.? How is it possible that the schools allow this sort of thing to go on? Why is an education system party to such a gross violation of personal rights?

The Prince George's County school system is allocated $11,325 per student, per year. This sum comes from a variety of sources, and roughly breaks down this way: About 7 percent ($780) comes from the federal government; 46 percent comes from the state of Maryland ($5,246); and 47 percent comes from local monies such as city budgets ($5,298).
In order for the schools to receive that money, a child must be enrolled in the school. Simple enough, right? Well, according to the state regulations on vaccinations, a kid CAN'T be enrolled if he doesn't have his vaccinations up to date. In fact, he could be expelled.
According to the news report, there were as many as 2,300 hundred kids being barred from school due to their non-compliance with the vaccination policy. If those kids were tossed from school due to state regulations. That would mean the PG County school district would suddenly be out an astounding $26 million in revenue from the state and the city! No wonder they wanted to threaten the parents with jail!
Don't let them suck you in with all that "it's for the safety of the children" nonsense. As always, it's about the almighty dollar. This is just the kind of issue that gets me going, because it's not only about good health, it's also about the protection of your personal freedoms. And the sad truth is, when it comes to vaccinations, the choice is very rarely yours. Your body and the bodies of your children are the property of the government when it comes to vaccines. It's not only un-constitutional; it's downright scary.
But when it comes to creating supplements with everything you need and nothing you don't, it's not just a matter of weeding through the junk. Sometimes it means finding Thankfully, there's no such thing as bad publicity. The more these kinds of things happen, the more the anti-vaccine groups are able to get some much-needed media attention for the cause. There are two great groups out there who are fighting the good fight against vaccines: PROVE (Parents Requesting Open Vaccine Education) and the American Association for Health Freedom (AAHF). These organizations are doing what they can to ensure the philosophical exemptions to mandatory vaccinations are enforced throughout the country.
You read that right. Refusing vaccines just isn't a matter of saying, "no thanks." While every state in the union protects those medically exempt from vaccinations (those with proven allergies to certain vaccines), and every state except Michigan and West Virginia offer religious exemptions, there are ONLY 18 STATES that offer a philosophical exemption. The fact that most states make a legal distinction between a "religious exemption" and a "philosophical exemption" (which, if you ask me, is the same exact thing), is bureaucratic hair-splitting of the most egregious kind.
If a study came out tomorrow that proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that vaccines weren't dangerous (don't hold your breath, by the way), I would STILL be shouting about exemptions at the top of my lungs. Why? Because it is a FUNDAMENTAL PERSONAL RIGHT to CHOOSE what is and what is not injected into your body and the bodies of your children. This right needs to be upheld in ALL 50 states in the U.S., and FULLY PROTECTED by the federal government. The right to choose to be fully vaccinated, partially vaccinated, or completely unvaccinated should be up to you. And no amount of money or influence should be able to bend such a basic constitutional freedom. Period.
Taking aim at mandatory shots,
William Campbell Douglass II, M.D.

CA Governor’s Universal Healthcare Insurance
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has proposed a plan that would mandate healthcare insurance coverage for everyone in California, including a large number of citizens unwilling to pay the huge costs, and still millions more who are unable to afford it. One published estimate is that 6.5 million Californians are currently uninsured, not to mention many millions of illegal aliens, their famlies and children, all of whom would become taxpayer subsidized.
Analysis: (1) Socialized medicine advances the concept that the needs or desires of some people give them a claim on the lives and property of others. (2) The proposed "plan" turns the providers -- the doctors, hospitals, and businesses -- into the serfs of those arbitrarily deemed to be in need. (3) One of the proposed funding mechanisms is the reduction of welfare benefits to American citizens. (4) There is no universal right to health care coverage, any more than there is a universal right for anything else unearned. (5) The Schwarzenegger egalitarian healthcare scheme, like ALL other socialist schemes, requires wielding massive government force to violate the rights of an untold numbers of individuals and families.
Summary: The difference between labor and welfare is who actually works to provide the good life. In California it is apparent that Americans don't count for very much - not much more than a host organism for a parasite. Since there is no serious effort being made to defend the border, hopefully the last American out of California will have the courtesy to turn off the lights.
