The choice made by families not to immunize their children is not supported by public policy or medical research nor should such action be supported by taxpayers in the form of child care payments.
Tony Abbott
Why isn’t the fact that 100,000 women choose to end their pregnancies regarded as a national tragedy approaching the scale, say, of Aboriginal life expectancy being 20 years less than that of the general community?
Tony Abbott
A presumption of any fact is, properly, an inferring of that fact from other facts that are known it is an act of reasoning and much of human knowledge on all subjects is derived from this source.
