Fascism comes to Australia

Parents in Australia Who Refuse to Vaccinate Will Lose Government Childcare Benefits - Tony Abbott http://www.pedestrian.tv/news/arts-and-culture/parents-who-refuse-to-vaccinate-will-lose-governme/186618e9-ed7f-4819-b00f-f1ed6efa6e50.htm These tough new rules will affect the Childcare Benefit, which is worth $200 a week, the Childcare Rebate, worth $7500 a year, and the annual $726 supplement under Family Tax Benefit Part A. This announcement means that, from January 1 2016, "conscientious objection" will be removed as an exemption category for the childcare benefits and the Family Tax Benefit.

Per Fairfax reports, there are already pseudo-religious groups that exist in order for parents to try and claim this exemption.
