You are missing the step where the people who refuse the medical procedure are also taking up a disproportionate medical resources when they get sick. And it seems to be, at least according to the data, more prevalent with conservative ideology. Nice try though
- hogFeast 5y agoNo, I am not. People are paying for the medical resources they use. Nice try though (I would learn more about social policy, the point of social policy is that it is for everyone, not people who agree to a medical procedure, not people who have political views you agree with...this is why the US doesn't have a welfare state, because people believe money will go to people "who aren't like them").

In my opinion, the unvaccinated should simply not go to the hospital if they get infected and instead recuperate at home. Sadly, they’ll continue to leech off of the work of those that have taken the bare minimum steps.
