Many people are calcium or vitamin D deficient. Most milk (in Chinada anyways) is vitamin D fortified.
Should we mandate that every person on earth must drink a glass of milk to fight the deficiency?
What’s that? You’re vegan? Who cares about your moral decisions! Morals schmorals! The government wants to protect you!
What? You’re lactose intolerant? Who cares that you may become ill! Don’t be selfish! You’re causing harm and may over-run the healthcare system.
Come again?! There are vitamins and supplements instead of forcing a milk mandate?! Don’t be a conspiracy theorists!!! Vitamin D and Calcium capsules haven’t been proven effective! Drinking cows milk daily is the only way! The dairy farmers have studied this! We must trust the science.

THERE IS ZERO NEED FOR A MANDATE IF THERE IS ANOTHER WAY.
EVERYONE SHOULD BE FREE TO CHOOSE, WHETHER THEIR DECISION BE A MORAL ONE OR WHETHER THE MANDATE MAY CAUSE UNWANTED SIDE EFFECTS! CHOICE!
If you read the above and can’t understand the importance of free will and choice, then substitute the milk for something else. What if we had a Christian mandate – everyone must wear a cross and pray to Jesus – oh, well NOW there would be outrage, right? Now, all of those who are forcing restrictions and inoculations on everyone would suddenly see individual rights, right?
Every single day, tens of thousands are killed in car accidents, or by alcohol or fried chicken and sugar… Let’s prohibit alcohol, driving and KFC.
Maybe we should mandate a way to ensure that everyone lives forever…
