Title: Get a Kung Flu vac to get a stimulus check?
Post by: K Frame on December 04, 2020, 03:25:26 PM
Wow...

Not sure at all how I feel about this...

Yeah, I can see the desire to get vaccination rates up... but holy hell, this just feels... weird.

If I'm not mistaken, they sent out a bunch of checks not too long ago for doing nothing.
Paying people for doing something makes a lot more sense to me than paying them for doing nothing. :old:

They don't have enough doses for this to work at all right now.

Since this is for a stimulus check, something that isn't earned, and not for an unemployment or SS check, something that has been earned, I'm OK with this approach.  Also, it turns the leeches into test rats.

I suspect there will be very thorough release of liability forms for you to sign in order to get both the vaccine and the money.
