Yep. If you flip the script, conservative heads would explode:
- Individuals have the right to refuse government mandates where they conclude their health may be at risk, no matter how the community might benefit.
- The Government can’t penalise the individual even if the individual benefits from a free ride on the sacrifice of others.
- The biggest threat to a person’s health that can be imposed on the individual by the government is to draft that individual and send him or her into combat.
- An individual should therefore have the right to refuse combat duties.
- Individuals who are already part of the armed forces should also have the right to refuse to fight given that many who volunteered did so for economic reasons.
I can just see the freedom-loving right-wingers fighting for those freedoms ...
Aint that the truth. Remember Malcolm Moore interviewing Republican Senators, during their pro 'go get 'em' strategies for the Middle East wars, if their sons and daughters were being sent to fight? Crickets and tumbleweeds.
