"Even if #CovidVaccines are appropriate in all circumstances, the decision to be vaccinated must be left to the individual. It's never appropriate for a government to force individuals to subjugate their rights for the public good. Individual rights are the bedrock of freedom."

Multiple problems with the sweeping vaccine mandate. First, it’s coming solely from the executive branch with no input from the legislature. Biden’s not a king, despite his delusions that he is one. Second, the “temporary” nature of this vaccine mandate isn’t really temporary since vaccines are irreversible. So if we find out there’s long term side effects from the vaccines, we’ve condemned tens of millions of Americans to suffer from those side effects. Third, the concept of informed consent is a big part of medical ethics. It means that somebody should be getting a medical procedure (such as getting the Covid vaccine) voluntarily, and there should be no coercion. Threatening someone’s job and livelihood over vaccination status can be interpreted as a form of coercion.

You're not a legal associate, eh?

Vaccines, mandatory or otherwise, are a part of history dating back to our founding fathers. If it was good enough for George Washington it's good enough for today. Our freedoms stem from them, and we're now violating their vision

This is an interesting take. Unfortunately, legal precedent by the Supreme Court in 1904 (Jacobson vs. Massachusetts) determined that “one man’s liberty cannot deprive his neighbors of their own liberty” (by allowing the spread of disease)… and “On any other basis, organized society could not exist with safety to its members. Society based on the rule that each one is a law unto himself would soon be confronted with disorder and anarchy”

Who knows what today’s Supreme Court would decide, but there is current precedent for any vaccine mandates to be upheld.

I'm a Bernie supporter who got invited here because I debate in a reasonable manner. I was reading some reasonable posts talking about how ridiculous it is to call Republicans racist all the time.
On the left it is frustrating because there is a president who says racists things (from mex are rapists to there are fine people in Charlottesville etc...) and enjoys 80% GOP support.
We clearly agree racism is bad - how can we work together to resolve it? Where does it break down?

Thoughts on the 2,000 dollar stimulus proposal? I personally think it’s not needed. Theoretically if you are getting full unemployment plus this 2000 a month you are making close to a 70-80k salary. Some people might roughly double their salary that they had when they were working. In addition, people like me (under 130k AGI) would qualify and I always could use money but it’s not needed.

54 members is inadequate for this to be any use. You need to actively promote and increase membership
