- spookthesunset 5y ago> Polls show 60% approve of the idea, with 27% opposed. Tyranny of the majority. Just because 60% support some crazy idea doesn't make it right. Also the average american thinks if they catch covid the chances of dying are 10%[0]. For most age groups that is 100 or 1000 times off. People are wildly off on their estimates of how bad covid is. How can the average person make an informed, rational decision about public health policy if they think Covid is Black Plague v2.0? [0] https://covid19pulse.usc.edu/ https://covid19pulse.usc.edu/
- bengale 5y agoI’m not sure if it’s something I want to get into but I don’t really agree. All I was saying is a policy supported by a large majority, proposed by this government, had to be walked back because of their inability to control the back benches. Boris is a piss poor leader.
