Libertarian paternalism
Dont let the name fool you. There is nothing libertarian about it.
76 - provocative comment here: what happens if their life choices include not working so that they cannot afford healthcare. Is that evil?
Bernie thinks so and thus why it should be MFA.
People should have freedom, choices but bear (at least some) the
knowable consequences of those choices.
Why should I have to pay for: people who smoke so much they damage their lungs, or eat/drink so much they have diabetes, etc? That is also the Libertarian argument - and a good one.
For vaccines, for now, the benefits are clear and the risks, are very rare. Should I have to pay for your family if they get Covid-19 and require serious treatment when a vaccine was clearly available?
Now, if they took the vaccine and it did not work (your hypothesis), then sure, the collective should help out with your healthcare.
If we want freedom, we need to be able to bear the responsibility.
It is in that frame, along with this virus having been, very likely, genetically engineered in a lab and countered by a US developed vaccine funded by the Trump administration, that I have gladly taken the vaccines and the boosters.
Guess what, as well? I workout without a mask, go shopping without a mask, go into Best Buy/Xfinity without a mask, etc. I would fly on a plane without a mask too, if permitted.
