Mayors are offering increasingly ridiculous incentives to bribe residents to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Want fries with that? It’s the latest effort from New York City Mayor de Blasio, who announced free burgers for people who get vaccines.
Ohio Gov. Mike Dewine offered a chance to win scholarships and million-dollar prizes. Krispy Kreme donuts is even getting involved, offering rewards for getting the vaccine.
And that’s not all. Others have offered discounted beer, free popcorn and even arcade tokens.
Some of these offers even involve using state pandemic emergency funds to persuade Americans to get vaccinated.
It’s not pretty, but it’s the new reality as state leaders seek to increase the percentage of people vaccinated. If a state can’t make you take a shot, they can try to bribe you instead.
But if a person isn’t willing to get vaccinated out of fear of saving his or her life, why would a burger help? The issue at this point is not availability, but personal choice.
Many Americans have decided they are not going to take the shot for a variety of reasons. Whether government mistrust, health concerns, religious reasons or simply personal choice, their minds are made up.
A free incentive is not going to help. We’re not shopping for groceries. We’re talking about our very lives. Not even a New York burger will change our mind on that issue.
My favorite is the lottery being done by dewine !!!!!
Because you can play the lottery 2 ways !!!!!!!!
1. You just might win 1 million dollars !!!!!
2. You may or may not die or have a severe reaction to the vaccine !!!!!!
But, if you win the $$$$$yet die, is there a way your family can still get the money ????????
Oh, the fun of lotteries !!!
Come on man !!! What you got to lose!!!!!!!!!!
Nay, think I will take my chances on the 99.25% chance of surviving COVID !!!!!!!!!!!!
OH SHIT, WAIT………I ALREADY DID THAT !!!!!!! WOOO, THAT WAS A CLOSE ONE !!!!!!!! LOL
Anyone who trusts De Blasio has rocks instead of brains! Same with the other liberal mayors and Governors . A flu that is 99.9% curable and recovery is massive, when cheap effective drugs are banned suddenly to make way for a so called Vaccine (its not a vaccine, its an experimental bio weapon with Nana Particles designed to separate our God given DNA from God and make our immune systems dormant! Big Pharma need to be closed down, they lsot the plot long ago and are only interested in Money
