DC representatives can't agree on anything now. One side will take it the other won't. But half gone is better than nothing. Thinning the heard can't hurt can it?

$17 ??? might be a small bet , but I am certain I am right . The government is going to try and tie the closing down of small business's to COVID tests and deaths . In all likelyhood , they will use that to shove this down our throats . I would also say that our so called " experts " will drum up new COVID scenario's to tell us that we will need another year of closing business's unless everybody has been vaccinated .
We have at least 5 companies coming out with vaccines by summer 2021 --- all have been government funded . The squeaky wheel will get greased .

I’ll make what DD was saying simple. I will bet you $100 that by July 4th, 2021 there is no federal law that all American citizens must take the COVID-19 vaccine.

All our shots are free at Walmart. Some kind of deal with BC insurance. Anyplace else have to pay some amount. None are required, but annual flu shot strongly encouraged.


Fishing, a man knows a serenity of soul and peace of mind that he finds in doing nothing else, and it makes no difference whether or not he catches anything. The mind of a true fisherman is not on petty subjects.

Dave is a high roller but I would go in for the extra $3 to make it an even $20.

That would be a very dumb move.


Why, because he might fire me? Hence the quit on the spot.

Quitting without a job to go to is a bad move. It may be months before you find a new job, without unemployment as a back income could drain any or all of your back savings if you have any.

But taking a vaccine that was rushed into production under political pressure (bypassing standard precautions), for a virus whose statistics are being substantially padded under political pressure, is a good move? WOW! I don’t trust liars with my life or my health.

Ut tyler hospital does not test any employees to see if they are non-symptomatic covid spreaders and as of now are saying you are not required to take covid vaccine although the flu vaccine is mandatory? Does that make any sense?

Jim Ford...I've read just about every report, etc. out there about how these vaccines were developed ,tested and finally given emergency approval. Nowhere have I seen any company say there were pressured politically, nor have I seen where a claim to have padded their statistics. And given that we have some of the best technology, the best scientists and researchers, I am not surprised we did this in record time. So my question to you is where did you find your information concerning political pressure and falsified statistics?

I worked for a major oil company about 8 yrs ago, and they required a tetanus shot. I got one at initial physical and others got one at 5 yr work anniversary. I know it is not the same but something similar.

Question, If one chooses not to get a vaccine, should they then give up the right of having the Government pay all the medical costs associated? As I understand it, and I might be wrong, the Government is picking up the tab now, reimbursing your insurance company.

I heard them talking about this on a local radio talk show last week. There are lots of ways to make 'uncomfortable' for you if you don't take the vaccine.

The government can deny you hunting and fishing license, drivers license, any VA benefits or SS benefits. If you think about it we are all dependent on the government.

They may not come knock on your door but they already control us more than we want to admit. Just My 2cents

Techfisher, I have two physicians in my family (one of whom is actually tasked with tracking Covid deaths). I have a pair of eyes and a pair of ears. I have a brain. Read my other posts on the topic. And as far as “claims of political pressure”, I’m sure James Comey would tell you there was no political pressure to falsify “evidence” against the President, and to “clear” Clinton. The same corrupt politicians are using Covid as a political tool, and the same corrupt politicians created financial incentives to pad Covid stats. Why do you suppose the study on Covid deaths, published last month in the Johns Hopkins newsletter, disappeared so abruptly? Why do you suppose so many physicians are disgusted at the Covid propaganda being pushed at us? Wake up and look around you.

I work in the natural gas business. A vaccine is the least of my employer's concerns.

If employers made it mandatory, employee retention and would go down the drain initially and maybe permanently until they wised up.

Everybody I know in the medical field that has been offered the vaccine has taken it or so they say.
