Funny, that sounds like a free market to me.

What are your ideas?

3. I think anyone who is obese or has a chronic illness should not be allowed to participate in health plans until they get healthy. I am sick of paying for them and now since "health" issues that could possibly -- although unlikely -- could effect another person leads to forced injections.. I can't see why I have to continue paying for people with chronic diabetes, chronic anything, anxiety disorders and other utter bull.
I agree with this. Moreover, anyone with BMI over 30 should not be allowed into fast food restaurants or be allowed to buy junk.

Extend this to alcohol and recreational drug use. Ever DUI should result in a 3 year ban from these substances (enforced with 3 year jail terms on violation).

If people really want this totalitarianism, let's go full throttle.

This is not freedom it is coercion using pressure from all sides limiting your LIVELIHOOD and ability to freely travel as well as other things.

Wake up to the tyranny.
"The false propaganda heard daily in privately owned businesses PA systems are all government taxpayer funded"

And you have PERSONALLY listened to every single one of them in order to make such a claim?

How else would you know?

What government is forcing employers to require vaccines? What government is forcing airlines to require vaccines?

And other than a govt agency I cant think of an industry, org or institute that treats people worse than the airlines. Great example
I don't think gov't is calling the shots. Has pointing a finger at gov't made things better? I think the real problem is the people on the ground subscribing to this.

Many of the mandates are coming from the government. Nothing free market about that.

It is part of what makes an anti-vaxxer, an anti-vaxxer. They interpret the medical truth as centrally directed misinformation.

"anti-vaxxer" - not me
I've had all recommended vaxxes up until 18 years of age and have had Covid, so no need for this one.
