My employer does allow you to donate leave hours to someone who needs them. Before COVID, seems like a lifetime ago, someone would send an email on your behalf if you were out for a prolonged time because of cancer, child's illness, etc. And this is great if your employer allows it.

Most federal agencies allow leave donations. Would be nice if more private companies would do this.
 
I clicked on the antivaxxer subreddit site fully expecting to feel some sort of satisfaction.
Instead, I kept scrolling and scrolling and scrolling and scrolling.
As I did so, I started feeling more and more pity for them and those who consider themselves antivax.

However, I have no qualms with instituting a 20-25% premium on their monthly health insurance premium unless they show proof of vaccination.

But I don't think that they call themselves antivax; you do. And on top of that, we live in a society that changes official definitions to fit an agenda, to where now if you are against any mandate, you are antivax. Unless you have been in the military, I've probably have had more stuff shot into me in 1 day that most have a lifetime but I'm 100% against forcing this upon everyone. Guess what that makes me? SMH

And what is the reasoning behind instituting a 20-25% premium on people that are unvaccinated?

Our healthcare system does need an overhaul, and that includes some paid leave on the business side. But it seems like before Covid, if you mentioned that, the first thing the conservatives threw at you was "socialism!". Now a lot of the same ones think it should be given. Crazy times..

I think everyone should get vaccinated.
I don't agree with mandates (which we have never had anyway, but I digress...)
People who refuse to get vaccinated for reasons that are legitimate medical concerns are not anti-vax.
People who refuse to get vaccinated for reasons that boil down to being misinformed and lied to by their preferred media or other sources are anti-vax.
The deaths and suffering of those people shouldn't be celebrated or mocked, for the simple reason they bought into a con. That's what happened to them.

So, sure, no mandates. Everyone who has had a chance to get vaccinated and boosted has. I guess it sucks for the people who are immunocompromised, but for everyone else let's go back to normal and whatever happens... happens.

But only for patriots unfairly discriminated against because of their brave refusal to get vaccinated. Everyone else who wants a handout can go **** themselves.

So should our insurance premium be based on BMI?

That's actually a factor for some health insurance policies/premiums depending on the company. So yeah, it already is loosely based on BMI in some cases.

Some companies are already giving discounts to policy holders who have been vaccinated. So...:shrug:.

yes, and I don't totally agree with it. I'm a smoker and had to take a nicotine test when my life insurance premium
was up for renewal. Like it or not, that's the way it is.
