I always find it odd that people take such a hands-off approach when it comes to things like Vitamin D usage, while at the same time cheerleading for governments to crack down hard on things like gyms, birthday parties, church services, elementary schools. Nothing is too extreme in the name of COVID, except that somehow distributing Vitamin D would be going overboard?
- mixmastamyk 6y agoYou are conflating different viewpoints into a single entity, let's call them "them" for purpose of discussion.

No matter how you put it, it's not a government's job to distribute a cheap, universally available subscription-free substance that might benefit their citizen's health. Why does the government not distribute fruits to all citizens? Should they distribute dental floss? Maybe yes, but only to people in real need who cannot afford any of this or need help (e.g. elderly who are afraid to leave the house due to Covid). In my opinion, the government's job is not to act like a nanny. There shouldn't be any need for it. They can and should expect a minimum of citizen participation and autonomy. Is that such a bizarre idea to you?
- smaryjerry 6y agoRight.. in my state weed and alcohol are essential and remain open but exercise, education, social interaction are now once again limited to your own home and we wonder why mental issues are sky rocketing. The latest order in my state made this week bans all indoor gatherings with people outside your home and it’s about 40 degrees F outside.
