Fascinating ... > .. the gov pays for these things not the citizens ..
You do know that the only money governments have, is the money they got from its citizens, right? That is, aside from what they may have earned (though plundered or extorted might be more fitting) from other nations. > .. the expensive vaccine is only $40, that's within the means of most poor people ..
You may want to reevaluate your knowledge about the rest of the world. That is, outside the USA and some the more affluent parts of Europe. Also, that vaccine probably won't cost "just" $40 equally for everyone. However, believe whatever you want. Time will no doubt teach us all a lessen. Personally, I hope it will teach me that I was wrong with my skepticism. |

I doubt it. You need to actually have a position that can be shown to be true or false with the passage of time before you can learn something from the passage of time. You have a bizare, logically disconnected, rant that does not make any predictions. I don't think any course of events would prove you right (or wrong).

In context, we were discussing afluent countries, canada europe, etc.

They will cost $0 directly. As you say there will be indirect costs based on taxes. However that will be true regardless of if you get the vaccine and be scaled based on your income, so im not sure how you think that applies to your argument sbout class divide.
