Is it okay to cross state lines to get the desired brand:

If someone needs a band aid available in only another state, then they should get it as log as it is needed.
Government subsidized:
The Weirdo: Thinks that money should be used for other things.
JudyG: Free band-Aids by AFLAC for anyone who needs it.

The Weirdo: He is against the helmet. what if the helmet had a glitch or fell into the hands of evil people an d put false knowledge into your head. He is completely against homework. The hours in school should be enough.
