I agree but I hate the misuse of the term "vaccine" here. To me that's brainwash. These are closer to the flu shot than a vaccine that conveys sterilizing immunity like the polio vaccine. I'm uninterested in the flu "vaccine" and the COVID "vaccine". With their narrow band of immunity, that wanes after 6 months requiring yet-more longterm untested vaccine shots. I am interested in the polio vaccine, or any COVID vaccine that's sterilizing. I don't really want exposure to the real estate market. I put every tax-advantaged dollar that I can into index funds. I hate it, but I don't have a better option as a retirement vehicle. I figure if the stock market is down in 2040 from today's market, we have a lot bigger problems going on in the world than just my retirement. Should have invested in Glocks, Brownings, and ammo. Which I am, but not for that purpose, but rather home defense. When I finally own a home that is.

Covid and flu vaccines save lives in vast numbers, perfect or not, but the capacity to have a sense of responsibility beyond your own life isn't equally distributed in our society so I do see and understand your point of view here. Still, this is very confusing reasoning. Like refusing to use the seatbelt in your car because the car doesn't have side impact airbags.
