Flu shots socialism?

To all those naysayers, wailers, weepers and harbingers of doom lamenting the Obama administration dragging "this once great nation" kicking and screaming into socialism: How many of you were first in line to partake of a government-sponsored, "free" H1N1 vaccine?

Call it socialized medicine, call it universal health care, call it what you will, but it does seem the human survival instinct knows no political ideology, and common sense prevails over fear-mongering.
