This is an illusion....you pass on your shot, somebody in Calcutta is getting it....they'll sell every good dose they can stockpile and as to satelites not going anywhere....one just fell in the ocean outside of India last week....and there are weapons graveyards all over the planet from failed attempts at making the bigger better one. That's where they end up..
This pandemic is a $20 trillion per year fire... Spending $15 billion to put it out is an INCREDIBLE bargain. A bargain we could never get without taxpayer funds.
If Sly gives me free Blazer game tickets I'm hardly being forced to go to the game but my taxes do pay for fixing the stop lights and pot holes on the way there...and I buy gasoline to drive there.....how do you justify buying gasoline with all this anti capitalistic rebellion? Bimart is giving free vaccinations right now...you aren't buying your shot and your dose isn't going to dent Wall St either. We pay for civil service with our taxes...senior disabled service...your taxes buy wheelchairs for people who can't walk....in this case helping them not die or get a serious lung condition. When our tax dollars protect the health of my family and friends.....they're doing what they should do....when they are fueling unnecessary arms races...not so much.
Curious how you feel about immigrants that come here should they be vaccinated and should their kids be required to for school admission?
I think we have a global responsibility to help anyone get protection from the pandemic...nothing to do with nationalism.....I've been hospitalized overseas before and benefited from another health care system ...they didn't turn me away because of my passport. US citizens returning from overseas are as likely to carry a virus as immigrants....Taiwan had been virus free and recently opened up to travelers which brought the first 20 cases of covid to the island since the early days...(They locked down and only had 7 deaths total when it arrived at first) ...it was carried by an airline pilot and crew ....they're regretting opening up now but they quarantined the crew and back traced them....they are good at handling pandemics..hopefully they contained it again like the first wave.
I wasn't referring to nationalism, to me its just common since to have kids be inoculated when going to school and that come here to reside. To me its just good management to have a system in place to to provide inoculations and vaccines to the multitudes.
@SlyPokerDog and I are into that consensual nonconsent kink. I'll allow it.
So the cat's out of the bag and he's back in the doghouse?
Perfect. And everybody else is allowed to distance themselves from those people. Businesses included. People who are at risk should be allowed to go to the store without worrying about being infected by a willing carrier, and we should be able to support businesses who don't allow willing carriers without masks as well.
Now you're just sensationalizing....you do you...just understand death isn't the only consequence from getting this shit in your internal organs...and those long term effects are a year and a half fresh....you talk about experimenting with risk....good luck with all that. Again..talk to a first responder who's dealt with all aspects of this and make an informed decision unless you have some carrier monkey hygiene issues that you feel a need to make public..you can't kill me with it now but you might fuck up my year old grandson's lungs by being in his air space .or kill the nurse in the VA that can't take the shot due to health issues..we don't know how that'll work out quite yet. Here's some country logic for you....better safe than sorry...if you don't trust the science try trusting the common sense.
No. Many people have compromised immune systems and can not get vaccines. That's just another reason it's so important for everybody else to do it.
So it's got built in natural selection?
