- 26I like this article. A couple of issues:
1. The nanny government is necessary if the government is also responsible to cover the outcomes. If we are required to pay, we should demand control of the risk. This is the philosophical issue. We are halfway, and it destroys the ability to properly institute the philosophy. It also impedes lay/nominal people's ability to grasp the philosophy itself. Almost like communism requires a society devoid of need to succeed (so asserted by the scum, Marx), our philosophy requires a society devoid of government-instituted altruism (individuals can do as they please).
2. I am not sure where vaccines like polio stand. Polio is gone. Smallpox and measles are gone. This is not possible without unilateral vaccination. Not sure "Darwinism" will solve this. I think Milton Friedman's Compelled Servitude applies here, and a fine proportional to the imposed risk, could be in order, much like he proposed for pollution. COVID vaccination excluded because it is not an actual vaccination at all.
There is a role of government. We are not anarchists. In my view the test is: "Government's role is where capitalism will not offer a maxima/minima, due to relevant local optimums in a non-monotanic system". The military is an example of where government is required. I think highways are as well, but opinions vary there. - 27Me dino will "different lizard" call myself anything I want.
And I don't care who does not like it. - 28The value in this (to me) is a reminder that while it was easy to object to untested vaccines, we so often don't even think twice that the SAME thing happens with seat belt and helmet laws.
Excellent reminder. - 29That would certainly qualify as sedition, would it not? Wouldn't it be fun to see these people called out and added to the list of those told not to let the door hit them in their collective asses on the way out?
- 30Great post. Very well stated.

- 34Read an article yesterday that EX USAID employees planning to gin up the employees in other agencies to screw things up and continue as they had in the past.
A "Take Back Over" you might say. - 35We all wonder about if there is anyone without ties to anyone but the truth . . .
- 36If I offended anyone with that, I apologize. I was being sarcastic, not serious. Sometimes I forget that I can't put a voice inflection on written words.
- 37Hope so . . .
- 38I like the idea of an independent prosecutor with no ties to anyone. Just one question: Does one of those even exist?

- 40Posted by $ kddr22 2 days, 3 hours ago to RFK Jr. Unloads Disturbing Vaccine Secrets on Tucker—And Surprises Everyone on TrumpThat kind of bonus is insanely wrong. If I complete immun combos from medicaid I will get a 25 $ / pt bonus that comes 12 to 18 mo later. Most of my medicaid bonus is actually doing well child exams, lead screens, dev screens etc. If those numbers were correct I would not be struggling to stay open

- 42Posted by term2 2 days, 5 hours ago to AI Was Honest - But not for long...definitely NOT allowed in work world. Hewever, we breed dogs to get certain characterists, so apart from the practical and ethical difficulties of breeding people, I think that selective breeding would work to emphasize various characteristics just as it works with other biological living things.
Therefore, mental actuity, brain size, speed of neuron connections, etc. could theoretically be different among various humans and human races. And that doesnt mean certain people should be tortured or killed or treated differently because of these differences.
Note that certain people are picked out to play basketball or track and field for physical characteristic, why shouldnt people be picked out for intellectually based things. - 43Posted by term2 2 days, 5 hours ago to AI Was Honest - But not for long...if we dont adopt AI, others will and some of them will be people like north koreaq, Putin, and Xi and they will conduct military operations with AI while we cant. We need AI to combat what they will do. AI will be the next way to prevent war. everyone will the want the best AI will scare off the countries that dont have AI . Nuclear bombs will be rendered essentially useless.

If not, are you also claiming that no other pediatricians are offered such incentives?
This article seems to offer very good evidence that insurers and governments have provided financial incentives to doctors who give more vaccines. https://reformpharmanow.substack.com/...
From the article:
BCBS Michigan has also offered incentives to providers to vaccinate children. The company in 2016 paid pediatricians $400 for each fully vaccinated child under the age of two if at least 63% of that physician’s patient population was up-to-date on vaccinations.
Blue Cross Blue Shield Blue Care Network of Michigan told Reuters that it “periodically provides financial incentives for physicians for administering the recommended vaccines for children under the age of two.”
In a typical pediatric practice, a pediatrician might see anywhere from 100 to 200 children under age two. This number can be higher in larger practices or areas with higher birth rates. If 63% of 100 two-year-olds are fully vaccinated each year, that’s a $604,800 yearly bonus. If 100% of the physician’s two-year-old patients are fully vaccinated, that’s a $960,000 bonus. - 50Posted by $ Thoritsu 2 days, 11 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 7/14/25 EDITION: See You Later Alligator!LOVE the last one!
