Women have rights over their bodies but they should never have the right to get rid of another person's body inside her. If they don't want that body there in the first place, there are MULTIPLE ways to prevent that from happening. In case that does happen, take responsibility instead of trying an easy way out. And no, don't give me the rape argument because that's the exception, not the norm.

The so-called "First World" nations are filled with corrupt hypocrites. You don't want to help Brazil. You don't want to save the Amazon. You want the many natural resources we have there. And you also want to keep Brazil from ever becoming as relevant as it could be. Btw, its funny that you mentioned Norway...while they complain about deforestation in Brazil, they keep hunting whales. Just like I said: a bunch of hypocrites.

I've got a family of 4. I'm fully expecting this to eventually settle into boosters every 6 months. I'm looking at this as an annual cost of $130 * 4 * 2 = $1040. That's not insignificant for most people who don't have health insurance.

All of that said, health insurance is required to cover this, so in the end that $130 figure is just a starting point for negotiations with the insurance companies. They'll negotiate some lower number, it gets factored into insurance rates. And ultimately regularly vaccinating people is going to be a lot cheaper than not vaccinating people and paying for more hospital visits. So in the end we wind up with insurance rates that are higher than 2019 levels but lower than they'd be without the vaccines. And people without insurance are screwed.

How can people be so gullible like this? It's not going to magically start working because you're (directly) paying for it now.

Liberals are the future, troglodyte conservatives are the past. History will laugh at you the way it laughs at Galileo's accusers. You're obsolete and belong in a junk yard. Fade sooner to get out of our fucking way.

Cope harder.
