If you want to feel like you're losing your mind.
Highlights:
A vaccine program will also be expensive, even though recipients are told they will get vaccinated for free. One thing I’ve learned in life is that “free” is rarely a good price for anything. Especially something of great value, like protection from a deadly disease.
I propose a citizen-led program with three basic objectives:
- Entice a broad array of social influencers to help drive vaccination rates
- Raise $50 billion to subsidize vaccinations
- Provide various businesses with certainty
My proposal is neither conservative or liberal — or it can be portrayed as both.
By establishing one price for the vaccine — free — we artificially constrain ourselves to that price and exclude other pricing models able to deliver better results for society.
HOLY FUCK HOW DO YOU GET THIS MANY BRAINWORMS
Relying on charity just means taxing the nicest rich people and taking nothing from the assholes. In the long-term, it's subsidizing assholery, because they'll invest their extra money and grow even richer while not suffering the full brunt of the consequences of social problems due to the charity that does occur.
no, even better, what the rich don’t want doesn’t get funded, see no marxist center for american progress
