Not their kids, they can afford the vaccines at list price. It's the poors who will die, as Supply Side Jesus intended.
Doesn't matter if enough people aren't vaxed for herd immunity
Who exactly do you think voted for Trump? lmao
How does that help them? It's a vaccine. If just you have yours, it doesn't work very well. It still helps some and objectively improves things so it's still a good idea, but it's not like having it when everybody does their job.
You are thinking like someone who gives a damn about other humans. Yes, everyone benefits when everyone who is able to gets the shot and we can keep the overall spread down.
But what if you are the type of person who thinks that everything is a zero-sum game, and you're not really a winner unless you have more than the other guy? What advantage is there to you, personally, if everyone benefits? It's much better if you get the benefits, and people you hate do not.
All those hillbilly fuckbrains who voted for trump? All those suburban moms who voted for a rapist? Nah bruv, those people can’t afford a $1200 vaccine or whatever the fuck. The traitor oligarchs can, sure. Perhaps they will meet their fate via a different route, nahmean?
