Bellyaching? Is is bellyaching to question an order, investigate the pros and cons, and discover that the consequences of acquiescences are acceptable vis-a-vis risks versus benefits. According to you, I should throw my entire medical career and livelihood away and refuse to take the flu shot, even though my review of the peer-reviewed medical literature does not disclose any compelling reason not to? Unlike you, I do not have luxury of simply saying no without severe and longstanding negative consequences. I would hardly call my conduct bellyaching. It's actually called riak-benefit analysis. And in the real world, it's usually the only tool one has to make a lesser-of-two-evils choice.
