So today on <social networking site>, I get this invitation to sign a petition….
First
off it’s to oppose a proposed law in Maryland, which I’ve never even visited,
nor do I know the laws of Maryland. Second, it’s a proposed law that will
expand the definitions of nursing in order to prevent unlicensed individuals
from practicing healthcare and nursing.
The petition is saying it’s going to
prevent all sorts of things because of how loose the definitions are, for example
“Assisting in rehabilitation.” So of course, this petition is saying “OMG
they’re going to make it illegal for yoga instructors and meditation instructors to
help injured people" because with their logic, they’re helping them rehabilitate, and heal, and etc etc
etc.
I’m pretty sure the law is attempting to prevent ACTUAL unlicensed health
care (for example a back-alley chiropractor) and wouldn’t even take the time to go after a yoga/taichi/zen instructor.
I mean seriously, if the definitions are loose, then they’ll interpret them
loosely. It’s hilarious because the super liberals are just as bad as the super
conservatives when it comes to freaking out about things and calling everything a
slippery slope.
Liberal: “OMG theyre going
to make feng-shui illegal because it aids in health care!”
Conservative: “OMG they’re going
to let illegals run rampant and take all of our executive jobs!”
Both of them....dumbasses.
