Making Deals with the Devil

Here's an article on an interesting development in Brazil. Welfare recipients may soon have to prove that they, and their children, are fully up to day with their Covid vaccination schedule in order to receive their hand-outs. On a similar note, Covid vaccines are now part of the regular vaccine schedule for kids and adults in the US, which means that public schools will be able to refuse unvaccinated children access to their services.

The pressure is on to get everyone fully up to date on their boosters. Especially the poor are being targeted. Without the resources to get around the restrictions, they have no choice but to comply. However, the better off will soon be targeted as well. Any kind of state pension will eventually demand some kind of compliance with health guidelines. Following this, private pensions will be required by law to do the same.

The point of this can't possibly be a concern with people's health because there's no evidence to suggest that any of the mandates foisted on us over the past years have had anything but negative effects. The point must therefore be compliance and cost reduction. People forfeiting government services represent cost reduction for the government, and people willing to submit to possible harm are preferred to those who don't.

The fact that recent health mandates have proven themselves harmful rather than beneficial can in this perspective be seen as a bonus. Those who submit to the mandates end up living shorter lives, and are therefore less of a drain on the system. Not only do the politicians get their much desired kick from a display of subservience among their subjects, they get the financial benefit of lower costs as well. It's a win-win situation.
