A Benjamin for a jab.

A Benjamin for a jab.

Postby Maddog » Fri Jul 30, 2021 3:34 am

President Joe Biden has called on state and local governments to give $100 to those who opt to get a COVID-19 vaccine.

The White House announced the new plan Thursday as the dangerous delta variant continues to spread across the U.S. and some states lag behind in vaccination rates.

The White House said the new plan will incentivize the vaccine-hesitant to go get their shots.

Maybe if they had given out all those $100 bills before vaccines came available , people might have lived, or lived a bit better. The offer might fry some CT heads

Again we see the driving need for conservatives to see themselves as victims.

'I didn't get a lollipop with my jab' is something you would admonish a 3 year old for crying about in private.

They probably didn’t think they’d need to. Rich countries aren’t nec full of smart people.

How would a 100 bill prevent covid?

Maybe it's "conservatives" who aren't getting the jabs. You make a lot of assumptions.

It would have given people an incentive to get the jab. However, if they didn't get one and then got Covid, it's their own fault.

It's a mixture here.

You will find anti vaxers in Alabama and San Francisco. Plenty of white farmers in Nebraska and black folks in Detroit.


These rewards aren't new. Seattle gave out joints if you got a shot.

How can you get a jab before the vaccine is available?

I presumed drum meant as soon as they became available, early incentive for the hard of thinking, seeings as basic science is beyond them.

Nothing to do with "conservatives" seeing themselves as victims then for not getting $100.

I think it's a bad idea - it's rewarding selfishness and stupidity.

It's $100.

That's 5 table dances at the titty bar. :gigglesnshit:

I guess I could go back and get them again. I don't really think anyone would know.

Do you think an arm or a leg would fall off if I was double vaccinated?
