Because I was not a trade unionist…

As the measles outbreak in Texas keeps spreading, parents who previously chose not to vaccinate their children are now lining up to get their kids the shots needed to protect them from the serious illness.

PLEASE @RichardBranson! You have the chance to make a difference. Your wealth could help control these beasts — flip the House, pressure for change, remove them from power, save this nation - we want love and freedom, not hateful autocracy!
