If the legislative and executive branches were serious about curtailing this virus, they know how to do it. Just enact a tax credit. Last February would have been the best time, but it’s not too late now. Make it payable in advance of 1040 filing. How much do you think it would take? $100? $300? $500? Or looking at the Medicare and Medicaid savings, maybe $2,500 would balance the books.

There are some intelligent, educated people who regularly post here, and I like to think that all of them are vaccinated. So don’t tell me otherwise. I also like to think that they know they are influencers. The best way to convince others to protect themselves is through the example of people they know and trust. You don’t have to proselytize, but at least bear witness to your decision. The life you save, may be a paying client for the next 20 years.
