Republicans have been against universal healthcare ever since President Obama got it enacted.

The Heritage Foundation and presidents like Eisenhower, Truman, Kennedy, Nixon, and both Bushes were all for it, but it is bad now because Obama is involved.

Now certain presidential hopefuls in the GOP are speaking against the laws that say kids need to be vaccinated before going to school, unless there is a medical reason,  because, as we all know, doctors are doing everything they can to harm people.

They’re not scientists, yet they make scientific pronouncements.

They are not pediatricians, yet they are giving parents medical advice.

Add to the objection to healthcare and disease prevention this little gem.

I worked in a fancy cafeteria type eatery in Nichols Hills in Oklahoma City when I first arrived there, and we had to wear those sweat inducing plastics gloves when handling food, and had to wash our hands after visiting the restroom because, obviously, no one wants to be or deal with the new Typhoid Mary.

If your hands were not covered and you touched any part of your body, the face especially, you had to wash your hand in the sink behind the serving counter where people could see you do that.

Years later, when I worked at a Starbucks, we had to do the post restroom usage thing and also wash our hands if we touched anything besides the outside of the paper cup, and that included basically all of the equipment and supply containers.

No one needs to get sick after having a cup of coffee.

Seeing the sign in a restaurant bathroom demanding that all employees wash their hands before returning to their work station is reassuring.

But Republican Thom Tillis of North Carolina feels that restaurants should be able to “opt out” of the health department regulation that requires this hand washing.
This is very unhealthy because this way, you risk damaging tadalafil online australia your urinary tract. Online shopping is not buy cialis only safe, it is convenient.

Speaking at the Bipartisan Policy Council last week he said,
“I was having this discussion with someone, and we were at a Starbucks in my district, and we were talking about certain regulations where I felt like maybe you should allow businesses to opt out. Let an industry or business opt out as long as they indicate through proper disclosure, through advertising, through employment, literature, whatever else. There’s this level of regulations that maybe they’re on the books, but maybe you can make a market-based decision as to whether or not they should apply to you.”

In his story, after an employee had exited the restroom and passed his table, someone sitting at his table had asked,
“Don’t you believe that this regulation that requires this gentlemen to wash his hands before he serves your food is important?”

In response he said, “I don’t have any problem with Starbucks if they choose to opt out of this policy as long as they post a sign that says ‘We don’t require our employees to wash their hands after leaving the restrooms.’ The market will take care of that.

That’s probably one where every business that did that would go out of business, but I think it’s good to illustrate the point that that’s the sort of mentality that we need to have to reduce the regulatory burden on this country.

We’re one of the most regulated nations in the history of the planet, and I think if we go about it in a common sense way that that solves a lot of problems. It makes these other big problems that we’re talking about imminently more easy to solve.”

A study a few years ago showed that women wash their hands at a greater rate than men do after taking care of the call of nature, and that those men who should wash their hands were more likely to do so if someone else was present. Otherwise, they would zip, flush, and leave.

I would feel somewhat comfortable knowing, or at least having some reasonable assurance that the person who just walked out of the men’s room washed his hands before touching my food.

I would be less comfortable seeing a sign that told me there was a good chance he didn’t.

And let’s face it, that sign would have to be very prominent as one is usually very dedicated to the task at hand when entering a restroom, and doesn’t necessary scope out the area for notifications of any kind.
