No one has a right to suscept anyone to a preventable deadly disease. No one has a right to drive drunk and possibly kill someone in an accident. No one has a right to walk around naked in public. I don't understand why this is any different. It's for the good of all.

Not everyone reacts the same to vaccines/shots. It should be left for those to choose. BUT what else has shown to work is mask wearing & anti maskers caused this spread. The sys is broken. You have distrust with Big Pharma, & lots of fear being pushed. Heart inflammation with children is stressful

Its time to end this pandemic. I think it should be mandatory for any one working with the public to be vaccinated

19 mos later and we're toddling this out like babies...Medical professionals are EXHAUSTED! Tired of treating unvaccinated patients when vaccines are available, ones that lessen the symptoms, lessen the severity in the 6% you get it by over exerting it's ability to protect.

Oh, Yes!!...Don't you know that government intrusion by Dr. Fauci's wise words of wisdom is what is good for the masses!? Cattle are more manageable when corralled, and so are people. As close to reality in this world these days take your lead from the WHO only.

Somehow, I think it is too little, too late. This should still have been in place until a larger population is vaccinated. And the ones who have to have weekly Covid testing should have to pay for each and every one.

We are in a time of desperation to get our normal life back, but it's a subtle loss of our bodies our choice...right? I agree something needed to happen, but I don't like the slippery slope of mandating a very new shot/vaccine. Which caused heart inflammation in our children. That's scarier to me.

No, we shouldn't be forced to do it!

We're in a global pandemic, and with people protesting mask wearing this leaves the society no choice. No one wanted to follow any guidelines, and so now we're in this position.

My sister is employed by a very large company. She is allergic to the vaccine and was advised buy her Doctor not to take it. What now?

Employers are going to lay off employees to get under the 100 number. Companies that are having a hard time filling positions anyway are going to lose experienced work force that they need to stay in business so they will ignore the vaccine requirement.

No it will Not because we already know that vaccinated people can still catch the virus and can still spread the virus. All the mandates are going to do is increase the number of unemployed and increase the employee shortage. Why make that worse??

I do not agree with federal mandates especially from this moron Biden! But I think everyone should get vaccinated to help us all get back to normal! How else are we going to get past this.

I don't think the vaccine will drop cases, but it may slow things down. We still have parents protesting masks which is proven to slow the spread too. Masks should be Mandatory, injections into our bodies should not. Not everyone reacts the same, majority might, but who pays for the those injured?

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.

Absolutely! Prices are way too high! Just another attempt of oil companies taking advantage of a big situation like in the 1970's.

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

It's your property, you should be able to use whatever information you want to decide the sale. Say I'd rather sell my property to a local family instead of a corporate developer that should be my choice.

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!
