EricHiggin said: I was more so referring to politics, though it's indirect 'beating', and more mental beating. Not surprised because based on who's in power right now (more so in our slice of the world at least) because that's how those type of people are. Politically and personally. Do this please, pretty please, and if not, immediately after, then YOU WILL obey or so help me.. science! I know it all too well and there's a ton of people who won't take that nonsense, and not just because it's off putting, but because it's flat out boneheaded, and far worse because they're supposedly 'leadership'. The 'children' could really use a service at this point. There is no winning based on how people have become politically these days. One side wants mostly truth, the other side is fine with being lied to if it's for 'everyone's own good', apparently. That can't work as it stands, and something will eventually give. If the vax may help you, then nobodies stopping you from getting it. Since it doesn't stop you or anyone else from contacting and spreading covid still, leave anyone who doesn't want it alone. Trying to force others to get it isn't going to work, and far worse, it's just going to leave scars, and those scars are getting deeper and wider by the day. The flu and common cold, which oddly disappeared for the most part, is apparently going to just reappear so we're told. Covid lands between them on the spectrum, so it was never going anywhere anyway. If you stop allowing 'free' healthcare to people, especially here, the lawsuits will be unfathomable. People will want every dime they were taxed back that went into the healthcare system, and they won't be paying into it going forward. No free healthcare, no healthcare taxation then. The Gov here has been brazen, but this would be Evil Knievel crossing the line and people would freak. We're already seeing new medical services pop up who are focusing or only servicing the non vaxed. Some businesses are doing similar, or flat out refusing to segregate. If it comes to new communities being formed because of it, so be it. If it came to that, set it up so it can become a new province eventually, if not a Country. You'd have plenty of people flock there just like the shift to Florida. |
I'm not talking about denying all free healthcare. But why should I be ok with paying taxes to cure someone who refused to take freely available precautions. The reason we still have restrictions is because the unvaccinated are clogging up the healthcare system and are also still more effective in spreading covid, putting my kids in unnecessary danger.
Perhaps don't charge for healthcare if you end up in the hospital with covid-19 after refusing the vaccine (for no valid reason) but add a fine. Just like when you crash on the highway while driving impaired or speeding -> free healthcare to patch you back up -> big fine / may lose you license / go to jail. Preventable problem, negligence (not getting the vaccine) -> consequences when you cause trouble for others.
Anyway BC is cut off now (due to flooding) so can start a non vaxxed community there :p
