We also dont know what the cost of mandatory vaccinations actually is: you will need to start prosecuting people, potentially putting them in jail if they resist. Im actually shocked at how casually people throw around mandatory and forcefully in the whole vaccine situation.
- eesmith 8y agoWe do have an idea, because there are countries with mandatory vaccination laws, including France where refusal to vaccinate, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccination_policy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccination_policy , may be considered a form of child abuse. My point again is to argue that your statements along the lines "What better way to persuade than to pay for it" is not obviously true. It may also be that mandatory vaccination policies are not a good solution. However, that doesn't make your proposed change any better.

- eesmith 8y agoYes, paying money may work. My point is that it's not a clear cut good solution like you seemed to argue.
