Just a heads up for those of you telling me to “cry harder” right now… When your special needs child can’t get the services they need because the school cut the program, and your other child who is lucky enough to be able to travel the 25 miles to the closest school gets measles, and your wife ends up with cervical cancer because she couldn’t get regular screenings, and your elderly mom passes away because she couldn’t afford her insulin, and the hazardous chemical factory job where you work 60 hours a week but only get paid for 40, doesn’t provide healthcare, and you can’t take a day off to deal with that lingering cough of yours, and the medical bills wipe out your life savings, and the bank takes your home and you end up on the street, I won’t tell you to “cry harder.” Because I’ll be too busy reminding you that eggs never got any cheaper.

They want to stop vaccinations because they say they cause autism (they don’t), but they also want to dismantle the Department of Education, which is responsible for funding public school services for… children with autism. Make it make sense.
