I used to filled with moral outrage about the stupidity of people like McCarthy, but over time I've come to accept their stupidity as both inevitable and self-limiting. After all, if they and their minions are dumb enough to let their kids die of a preventable illness, their dimwitted bloodlines come to a screeching halt, which is a good thing for the species in the long run.
I think one thing that gets overlooked in the race to "think of the children" is that the children are simply little bundles of more of the same DNA that started the mess in the first place.
Natural selection is not a gentle process, but it beats a planet overpopulated with idiots.
