Tax the Unvaxxed
Washington Monthly ^ | August 11, 2021 | Anne Kim

Posted on 08/11/2021 6:19:32 AM PDT by artichokegrower

More than 700,000 people are flooding the South Dakota badlands this week for what will surely be the COVID-19 superspreader event of the year, the 81st annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.

We can hope the majority of attendees are vaccinated. But last year’s rally took place in blatant defiance of recommended health and safety protocols, resulting in hundreds (and likely thousands) of infections nationwide. “Screw Covid. I went to Sturgis,” read T-shirts sold at the event. With the delta variant already raging, the consequences of this year’s event could be horrific.

My wife and I, both in our sixties, had COVID-19/CCP-1984 in January/February of 2020 before it had a name and survived it without doctor visits or drugs, and I have the IgG and IgM antibodies to prove it.

We had it and we recovered with none of the lingering effects alleged by the fear-mongers.

The REAL thing we should be concentrating on is THIS WAS A BIOLOGICAL ATTACK BY THE CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY ON EVERY HUMAN BEING ON EARTH.

We should have turned Xi Jinping into a lamppost decoration eighteen months ago.

There is still time.

IRS as a political weapon? Haven’t we been here before?

Why isn’t there a ‘propaganda’ category? (as opposed to ‘news’)

This makes no sense.

They hate the unvaxxed heathens.

Just skip the taxes and send them to the concentration camps for the final solution.

:-(

Where’s the hue and cry about all the needless emissions being spewed? As for the vax.... Is it a law that folks MUST get the stab? Don’t think I missed the legislative session where they passed that.

And we have done nothing, zero, zip, nada. The Chicoms declared war, went to war, cost us lives and trillions and Biden has done nothing but eat ice cream.

“delta variant already raging”

How many deaths from Delta (not ‘accompanied by’ Covid-19 version Delta) make the situation “raging”?

Wouldn’t these standards also make Deaths From (with) Allergic Rhinitis- common cold, or others like Herpes Simplex- canker sores, etc make these situations Raging Pandemics, too?

The Jab/Stab/Vaxx is both ineffective and harmful.
Letting people make their own decisions is what scares the Left the most.

Thanks for the links. Bunch of Sturgis sleepy-heads sleeping in at this hour give us largely empty streets. That won’t last.

Don’t know anybody who’s had the delta variant. I’ve read, often, that it’s more contagious and less deadly than the “original” covid. Today, the cuddly Dr. Marc Siegel on Fox, said it’s as horrible as the original. Presumably fewer people are dying because of the shots.
Either way, a lot of people won’t be taxed or penalized, because they just got here through the open borders and they won’t be any more interested in paying taxes or penalties, than they were about breaking the law about entering the country.
Only the law-abiding have to worry about taxes and penalties.

Biden has done nothing but eat ice cream.

And some of the best brands available I’d guess. I eat
ice cream every night before bedtime, love it.

Auto accident deaths are “raging”—when the CDC finally figures that out they will try to ban vehicles.

Now some may say that auto accidents are not contagious—but that is wrong. If you don’t drive you can’t get into an accident with another person!
