Throughout the country, people have asserted an irreducible freedom and an unconditional right to \u201cdecide\u201d whether to accept the vaccination. This is understanding and assertion of freedom and rights are yet another example of an extraordinary confusion about the core philosophical and political ideas that animate the American Political experiment.
