[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 562098, member: 1211"] Absolutely. That's why I said, "You got a right, but so do other people. You aren't an island." I don't want to sidetrack this into Rubber Room heat, but this all makes me curious as to what exactly "USA" means to people. Is it a community? Is it about individualism? Is it about a cloth symbol with no greater, deeper meaning? If you think America is exceptional, how so? What makes it so? I have to admit I'm confused by it. I believe it was Carlos who said something about a law, or some kind of precedent, about the govt having the power to mandate public health protection, and he cited something from the early 1900s (probably the Spanish Flu period, but I can't remember what that was now), but I know I've heard nothing about that from anyone, be it a health official or a journalist etc. [/QUOTE]
