Public Health trumps any one person’s personal liberty. This is a war we must have compliance with. Otherwise, lockdowns are again inevitable!

Really? Then we should ban use of alcohol for many people are killed by drunk drivers, we should ban big cars that are more likely to kill someone, we should ban stairs as 100s or 1000s die every year on stairs. No, there are limits on stripping liberties on the basis of Public Health.

It amazes me that so many people are so ignorant and selfish in their refusal to get vaccinated. How much more evidence does someone need to see that the vaccine will save their life. If you are not vaccinated and you get Covid, you should have to pay your own medical expenses.

Funny cuz all the vaccinated people are passing Covid around. And I’m not getting it. I refuse. Nobody knows what problems it’s going to cause 5 years from now.

We have been getting vaccinated since the first three months of being born. Maybe if the medical community would stop treating the unvacinated. After all it's free choice.

It is not unconstitutional. No one is being forced to be vaccinated, but the vaccination has become a condition of certain types of employment. I had to be fingerprinted and have a negative TB test in order to receive my teaching credential. I was not forced to get the credential. It was my choice.

Such mandates violate personal conscience rights and religious rights, especially when considering that the "vaccines" are experimental, unproven, novel gene therapies and have connections to aborted children. Natural immunity studies show natural immunity is 6.7X more effective than "vaccines.

It's for the people by the people. The majority of the people want their right to choose for themselves. Going against that is against the united states constitution.

It's not okay to force it on someone. I have natural immunity from having covid, have been around people that have it currently including some that have gotten the shot and I have not gotten sick therefore I won't spread anything. So why force something that isn't needed on some people.

There is no need for this. Besides according to all the research the vaccine only helps reduce syptoms, it makes not difference in the spread of it, so it should totally be an individuals choice.

It's not a vaccine. there is no vaccine for a virus. Never will be. You cannot create a vaccine for an ever changing vaccine. They have been trying for years with the seasonal Flu. All they could create was a temporary flu shot. The mRNA is not a vaccine.

The strategic oil reserves are for times like this. We should also keep an eye on the oil companies and make sure they are not making extreme profits off the backs of the American citizens. After all that petroleum is being pumped from American taxpayers land that has been leased to these oil co.

No, the reserve is not for time like this, it is for times when we don't have oil available. We do have oil available now, and a LOT of oil available. It is just that Biden (and pseudo-environmentalists) don't want us to use it.

The US shouldn't be relying on foreign sources of energy when we have more than enough to be energy independent again. We were energy independent just over one year ago. But that ended on day one of this administration.

Explain why oil companies would not provide as much oil as possible at a time when prices are sky high. No, the prices are high due to speculation of shortage, given Biden's refusal to open up the spigot (the oil leases he claimed unused are not proven, exploration still necessary. ANWAR is KNOWN

We may need our reserves for war before this is over. Increase supply and lower costs by reversing Biden's orders and policies. https://americansforprosperity.org/biden-policies-raising-gas-prices/?fbclid=IwAR3jOvKpxrWnyT1iz2JrBflODu-aV7aHZdj_B4JgTndUI-8XFvAwXp3M1Jw

Absolutely not. Oil prices (and therefore gas prices) would drop dramatically if Congress would just reverse the disastrous executive orders Biden has put into effect restricting U.S. oil production.

Why tap into a reserve that is meant for when Oil is unavailable? We have plenty of oil available, it is just that irrational environmentalists don't want us to use it: https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2022/03/07/greenpeace_environmentalism_allowed_putin_to_invade_ukraine_820399.html

Yes they should. That is how I sold a piece of real estate I had. Happened four years ago. Was given a higher offer from a developer but I went with the people that sent me the letter. I was able to pick who was going to live next door to me. Have never regreted it. They are the best neighbors!
