man, you guys are really harsh on minorities and all types of people who have kids.
never thought i'd see that out of some on these threads.
no insurance affordability. ex-obama hhs sec'y says no right to work or be around kids. guess they'll just die and be fewer of them.
whew. lot to unpack.
This is one of the posts that are sometimes difficult to decipher.
First, are you responding to me? My post immediately preceding yours?
Are you disagreeing with me?
i didn't see your post.
Or are you agreeing with me that there are innocents involved as well? Not just the "stupid" actively promoting anti-vax propaganda and/or swallowing it wholesale.
I don't understand the reference to "no insurance affordability"...the vaccine is free, so how is insurance involved in this question?
short list of some solutions/reactions prescribed here the last several days (not all inclusive... no sympathy is another, for example).
And what are you referring to with the 'right to work' comment?
that's a throw in not from the boards, but something obama's ex-secretary of hhs is now prescribing.
I'm not taking issue with anything you're intending to say,
I just don't understand the references...might be way less informed than you.
ok, thanks...I think I understand.
On the health insurance, my view is that if a person refuses to take certain actions that are fully in their control, eg get vaccinated (absent a valid medical reason) they should pay more for their insurance (ie less if you are vaccinated). Their expected cost of care is higher statistically. Exceptions? Well, Medicaid is free...
On 'right to work', I think it should be entirely legal for employers or indeed any private business to require their employees #1 and customers #2 to be vaccinated in order to continue their employment, receive service...again, except for valid medically approved reasons. I'm not so sure it should be required for employers to take such action, except for situations in which there is a clear public health imperative due to high exposure that can't be adequately mitigated by other measures. That said, vaccinations are certainly preferable for businesses relative to social distancing, density, and mask limitations. For instance, if a cruise line wants to require it of employees and customers, willing to lose employees and customers, they certainly should not be prohibited by government from doing so.
