Bribery for vaccine: Why the bribery, at our expense, to get a vaccine?🤔. It was a question asked of me. I think I know the answer but it’s just my opinion.

Catfish, They have NOT been charging for the vaccine. Somebody is trying to sell you a lie. i got both of my shots from the VA back in Feb. No charge. Anyone that wants money from you is running a scam. IMO of course.

Becoming a common practice, my daughter's employer is paying $500 to all employees if they get the shots

I think CH is referring to the "bribery" as some places are thinkin bout a lottery for people who get the vaccine.
Also the people that the employers are payin to get the vaccine. At least I think that is what he means.

Of course.....there's a difference between bribery and extortion

OK I misunderstood him then. Now in Maryland they are having a "Lottery" to give away money (mine) to those that get vaccinated. Am I in the Lottery? Or the other people that got vaccinated already? No Idea.

I had to do some research too. Ohio launched a million dollar lottery to folks only if they’ve been vaccinated. They have one winner already. Colorado is offering a 5 million dollar sweepstakes to anyone willing to get vaccinated. Un-vaccinated people don’t qualify for the lottery in Ohio or the Colorado sweepstakes. Ohio has seen a 45% increase in vaccinations since the lottery began. With some people all it takes is money to sway their decision. 🤷‍♂️

True. They are using OUR money to pay people to get the vaccine. The only way you’re sure to NOT be in the lottery is if you’re not vaccinated yet. It just seems rather odd that they are trying to bribe people with money. And it’s not even their money they’re bribing with. You don’t have to buy a lottery ticket or pay anything to be entered into the sweepstakes. Just show proof you’ve been vaccinated and you’re in. Looks like people are lining up to get the vaccine simply to be eligible to win OUR money.

My granddaughter works at local hospital and they told her if she wanted to keep working there she had to get vaccinated

Kind of. Ohio and Colorado are, already, doing it. Maybe other places as well. I’ve only seen it happening in those two places but haven’t looked much. 🤷‍♂️. I wouldn’t get a vaccine simply because I might win some money for doing it. What next? They offer us a chance to win 5 millions dollars if we give them our guns?

Time to look for a new job huh? That’s more like blackmail I’d say.

Yup and there’s a fine line here.
