Since you started the topic, let's start with - Why?

Because they are free people too. By the way, it’s Medicaid.

How much did Xi pay you to post this?

Fine by me.
Government has skin in that game.
While we're at it, food stamp recipients should be limited to about 10 items per month.

Obese people should have to lose weight. Smokers should have to quit smoking.

Because we are paying for their health care. Save one hospitalization and I suspect it would pay for 1000 or more vaccines.
It is no restriction on freedom. They can quit Medicaid if f they don’t want to take it

He’s attempting to create a straw man argument about forcing people to get the vaccine. He “assumes” that since most conservatives dislike the Medicaid program and other entitlements they would be in favor of government forcing the recipients to get vaccinated. His miscalculation was that he was programmed to think that conservatives don’t like the entitlements because of the recipients and not the program itself. He assumed that he would get a large response of conservatives to agree with him…sadly, he did not get his response so he’ll have to weep into his crusty socks and his copy of Vanity Fair.

Food stamps should be reduced to subsistence levels—I agree.

Because it is experimental treatment with zero data about mid-term/long-term side effects and complications.
Once this is FDA approved, I think tyrants will make an even bigger push.
Problem is going to run into the single most vaccine hesitant demographic group is also the main Democrat voting base and, perhaps coincidentally, fairly heavy users of Medicaid from a proportional basis.
So, that could be a sticky wicket or why no one is talking about it currently.
(ETA: I don't agree with your premise. Either the body decisions of an individual are sacrosanct or they aren't. If we can't make a woman on Medicaid abort a child - would be a much cheaper procedure than birth and then, presumptively pick up the care of the child, then we can't do this currently, IMHO. Heck, do we force Medicaid recipients to get childhood immunizations or even the flu vax?)

No.
It is a simple concept. Only a bleeding heart liberal would disagree.
When one takes free things from other taxpayers they give up certain choices. You can’t check in the Cleveland Clinic for example and expect Louisiana’s Medicaid program to pay for it. This is the basis of the argument against national healthcare.

Well, you want to just keep stacking up logical fallacies, don't you?
This isn't an analogy to your scenario at all. This would be, "If you don't get your hernia repaired with this experimental new mesh - RIGHT NOW - we're cutting off your Medicaid benefits."
Now, that wouldn't fly, would it?

How about a full fricking year before you jam it in every single arm, risk or no risk, for a virus that has a 99%+ survival rate for all but the absolutely highest risk categories?

I agree, if theyre obese they should be forced to diet, not allowed alcohol or tobacco etc.

Section 8 people should be required to get tubal ligation or vasectomies.

Most of them should receive it, but you have a right to refuse healthcare in this country so long as you are not an immediate and direct threat to yourself, someone else, or are yourself gravely disabled.
Posted on 7/25/21 at 2:29 pm to I B Freeman
You're absolutely right. The overwhelming majority of hospitalizations and deaths are from the unvaccinated. If your healthcare or death is going to cost me money, vaccination should be required. And yes, food stamp purchases should be limited to fruits, vegetables, proteins, and carbs. No soda and junk food.
I refuse to wear a mask, hate Fauci, Biden, and his entire rotten administration but retards not getting the vaccine, then having to go to the hospital with covid while sucking on the taxpayer tit is unacceptable.
