Rand Paul hints that he would still oppose mask/vaccine mandates even if they worked because he hates government telling people "to do this & that"

It’s time to end vaccine mandates.

No petty government authoritarian should control personal medical decisions.

He is correct
We never reassigned our unalienable rights to the health department

Liberty is more important than security any day of the week.

Those that give up Liberty for security will soon have neither.

A key issue is most people don't even get it. More people die from heart disease. So, covid is not the monster virus that kills half the world's population , which is what they want you to think

1 out of every 8 gets it and then 1 out of 20 if that 1 out if 8 die from it.
1 out of 20 of 1 out of 8 is Very small but this math is like high level calculus for idiot libs so they can’t comprehend and worse they disagree or ignore when they see it published by CDC or other sources .

You mean Government mandate, not Government "authorization."

This is a no duh thread. Of course we should always be free to do the right thing or not. Almost never in your fantasy world do politicians ever do the right thing. It's the nature of government, which is why libertarian is the best model. Libertarianism is built on the idea that we all make our own best choices

If Rand Paul were a little taller, he could be president.

Or at least vice president. Ah, well. The people I like best, like Rand Paul and Lindsey Graham, never get picked, somehow.
