Boston to start offering free sunscreen from dispensers around the city

[candycorn]

Sounds like a great idea. It will hopefully prevent sunburn and ultimately some forms of skin cancer.

I'm sure there is a downside to this someone will think up.

 

[Fugazi]

I feel like there would be better things to spend money on.

Nothing is free. Someone pays for it.

The downside is, it's just another program that trains people to expect the government to take care of them and pay for their needs.

Just another attempt by a govt. to show how it cares for it's people, what a shame....

This could set a dangerous precedent for collective, community action to prevent harm. Next thing, there will be public facilities in place to fight fires, and special vehicles to retrieve the sick and injured to take them to hospitals. Where will caring for fellow humans stop?

I know this is a novel idea.......but how about people learning to take care of themselves? .....

When the humans,, are invaded by aliens, nope, they do the same thing...Damn that thing called love..........not..........

 

[Moonglow]

In my case........every since I was 16 years old. ......

Did you have parents and are you married?

You can pick up a bottle of sunscreen at Walmart for about $6.00 dollars probably cheaper at a dollar store. Can people really not manage this on their own?

 

[Moonglow]

They should also stop offering free hand sanitize also....

 

[Katzndogz]

In a very short time people will forget they once had the ability to get their own sunscreen. It will be an entitlement. No sunscreen! You want people to get cancer.

 

[Stephanie]

nothing like a NANNY government

soon they'll be offering to wipe your ass. of course they will tell you it has to be with ONE SHEET of toilet paper.

they must have all kinds of magic money trees growing around that city. JUST WOW

 

[EverCurious]

One sheet?!? Oh hell no, and also I'm not keen on them wiping my ass for me either...

That said, I eco the sentiment NAAAA-NY

I've never used it....I have so many age spots, it gives me a permanent tan...

If the people in government care for it's people so much then let them use their own money to express their care.

People can't buy their own?.....

 

[Moonglow]

Just wear a long sleeve shirt like the old timers did it 100 years ago......

 

[Rozman]

People should be able to buy their own but where is the joy in that.
Better to get free stuff from government because that's what government is there for.
Right Libs?
