    Trading freedom for security has always been foolish.

    Vaccine passports are just another step closer to authoritarianism. You must inject a substance into your body or the government will restrict your rights. And our society has swayed so far from the understanding of history and the understanding of human rights that most of these lemmings completely support it.

    Vaccine passports won’t do anything to prevent unvaccinated people from becoming infected. And since the vast majority of infections come from private gatherings, vaccine passports will have little effect. I think we’ve been over this before. I remember calking out your misinformation already. And your blaming the spring in Ontario on the provincial government’s vaccine distribution? That’s as dishonest as it gets. Ontario had to ration vaccines throughout the winter and early spring because the federal government completely dropped the ball on acquiring enough doses sooner. Enough with your bull crap already. It’s tiring.

    Mitt Romney can run it and show you how to make a profit, like he did in Salt Lake City in 2002. “Official state estimates of the economic impact showed the Salt Lake Olympics yielded $100 million in profits, $4.8 billion in sales, 35,000 job years of employment and $1.5 billion in earnings for Utah workers during 2002. Since then, the state's ski and lodging industries have enjoyed record-setting years, with a 42 percent increase in skier visits. Direct expenditures from skiers and snowboarders have increased 67 percent from $704 million in 2002-03 to $1.2 billion in 2010-11.” https://www.ksl.com/article/19155597/economic-impact-of-2002-olympics-still-felt

    New York's last 3 governors, all Democrats, resigned from office amid sexual and corruption scandal.  Heckuva job New York! ?

      Bubber is among the sorely afeared. 

      I guess it gets like that when you believe somebody out there is after you.

    That’s not entirely true. Big business has given more to Democrats than Republicans over the last several years, beginning with Obama, especially Wall Street and the big banks, as well as all of Silicon Valley. The U.S. doesn’t have to cut to set things on a sustainable path. Just capping spending at inflation + 5% would work wonders with an increase in revenue. Also the federal government needs to stop using baseline budgeting as it’s default position. It just encourages departments to spend more money than they might need to. And regardless, discretionary spending makes up a tiny percentage of the budget. The biggest expenditures are non-discretionary spending. Medicare and Medicaid are #1 and #2, military spending is #3 and continues to drop as a percentage of GDP. And btw, it’s Biden that has significantly increased the military budget. Apparently he didn’t think Trumps budgets were high enough.

    Biden supporters plead guilty to hate crime after attacking pro-Trump protesters, and stealing a MAGA hat from a crying child.

    Partially right, but none of the big money lobbyists on the Democrats side don’t want to see any meaningful spending limits. And Democrats gerrymander in blue states the same way Republicans do in red states. The last president that agreed to tax increases in exchange for spending cuts was George H. W. Bush in 1990. Taxes were raised, but Democrats didn’t give him the promised spending cuts, AND used his tax hike against him in the 1992 presidential election.

    Adults who engaged in the recommended levels of physical activity were associated with a decreased likelihood of covid infection and severe covid illness.

      People need to maintain fitness or they have higher risk of death. Quarantines encourage a prolonged sedentary period that weakens the system.

      Its not complicated.

    3. Shady

      Exactly.  Prolonged lockdowns only encourage unhealthy behaviour.  Excess eating, excess drinking, and sedentary lifestyles, all weakening immune systems and leading to other diseases and illnesses as well.  These other issues only making the effects of covid exponentially worse.

      Boges is like a person in a frenzied state who feels like they’re drowning. Lashing out in all directions for anything to grab hold of. 

      These people would eat their own kin to save themselves. Stay the heck away.

    Somebody needs to file a protective order. This has gone on long enough.
  12. Shady
    I agree. There needs to be a president willing to sacrifice the chance at a second term to broker a deal that raises taxes but caps spending.

    Covid will be with us probably indefinitely, the same way the flu, pneumonia and other seasonal viruses are. Covid will become less and less virulent, but as the flu, disproportionately affect older unhealthy people in particular. And just a reminder to people, but we’ve had flu vaccines for 70+ years, and the flu hasn’t gone anywhere. It’s best to learn to live with covid as a seasonal illness.
  14. Shady
    Me too, but in particular a conservative woman. Genitalia isn’t a qualification. It’s about policy.
  15. Shady
    No, I don’t necessarily want a man in charge. Why would you assume that?
  16. Shady
    I have to agree with Argus. It reminds me of looking at federal budget data. Before and after women started voting in America. After women started voting, federal government expenditures soared as did its deficit spending and accumulation of debt. I’m not saying that some of it want necessary, but it’s still another statistical fact.

    Just examine the gender gap when it comes to Trudeau. A significant majority of women support Trudeau. A significant majority of men don’t. It’s just a fact.

    I agree, at some point soon technology will be where we need it to be. But there are other issues when it comes to lithium that need to be taken into consideration.

    Just like the Dems! Vote for Biden or democracy will end! Vote for Biden or covid will kill you! Russia! Putin! The climate is doomed! Fear fear fear.

    The Dems know that they’re in for an epic loss if either Harris or Abrams is their nominee. The train wreck would be fun to watch though!

    Or Biden!

    Exactly. I believe Germany has a public system as well as a private one if you want to opt out of public health care.

      The British variant was worse than the original. The Delta is worse than the British. So far, this one is not following a downward path to oblivion. Maybe because it was designed and not natural?

    3. Boges

      The goal is obviously to make a disease like COVID endemic. Which is what we're seeing from Alberta. 

      But the Delta Variant is not the type of version of this disease you want to be endemic. 

      Now if more people were't moron anti-vaxxers, this wouldn't be an issue.

      I told the virus fanatics this fact a year ago. 

      Argus and Boges should write to Smithsonian to complain, that article conflicts with their opinions.
