Many can barely pay their health insurance now and raising it will leave many without health insurance.

With the 10s of millions vaccinated I think the jury is in they are safe.

I’ve been wondering what the next step is.

Trust me. The marines who skipped will be first in line when it can be mandatory or they can be kicked out like during the anthrax shot time. I would imagine there is pressure on the FDA to approve as soon as possible.

The anthrax vaccine was a mess at the time - not made or tested for inhalation but for workers who worked with animal hides

to not pay out claims. Maybe also allow states to xfer all hospitalization costs back onto the unvaxed. That will kill 2 birds.

First, it would give a sharp financial incentive to get vaxed.

Second, it would eliminate the gop love for pre-existing condition exemptions.

Mostly satire here.
