Default Re: A tyranny by any other name

[ QUOTE ]
Natedogg & Others,

Do you guys reject wholesale the concept of public goods and externalities? I think that's silly. Our government has done a pretty good job with public health, and immunizations are a major concern of private charities working in poor countries. What tyranny should pop out at me here?
[ QUOTE ]
The Supreme court ruled that forced sterilization laws were constitutional. In his ruling, Justice Holmes said, “The principle that sustains compulsory vaccination is broad enough to cover cutting the Fallopian tubes. Three generations of imbeciles is enough."

So a woman who was thought to be an imbecile because her mother was an imbecile and who was thought to be promiscuous, was forced to be anesthetized, and operated on so that she could never have any more children. Is this tyranny enough?
[ QUOTE ]
So that would be like... an entirely different tyranny?

Constantine asked, "What tyranny could pop out here ?" I gave a specific example of what happened in the past with compulsory vaccination laws. My quote was from the Ruling of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Oliver Holmes.
