Well on the positive side: government can subsidize flu shots which helps the individual who receives the immunization and the community at large by helping prevent the spread of the flu.

On the negative side: government taxes gasoline to help curb some of the problems placed on society by your driving your auto (like congestion, pollution, etc).
