Do you feel this is evidence our current government is corrupt?

Has President Obama addressed this issue?

Do these questions offend you?

1. they are the superior caste in post-Reagan America.

They should get vaccines, medicine, food, luxuries in keeping with their position. They are better creatures than the rest of us, ordained so by God itself, or at least Ben Bernanke and Tim Geithner, which is the next best thing.

4. I totally agree........the best should come first

10. God has nothing to with it. Their superiority over the common man is warranted by their great wealth

Read some Ayn Rand to get a picture of what these fucks actually believe about themselves.

5. The folks making the vacines are driven only by profit thus there isn't enough.

this along with being tragic is a dry run for the government.

6. As guinea pigs to test it out?

I think they have promising careers with animal testing labs. I don't think even PETA will stick up for them. :rofl:

7. I hope their doses are as toxic as some think the vaccine is

That would be ironic.

11. The company docs were able to get it through a loophole in NY state law.

So no, I don't think it's evidence of anything except a poorly constructed state law.

12. My source article does not mention your very important detail.

Can you provide me a link?

13. Here:

The government-funded vaccine is being distributed to states, where health departments decide where to send the limited doses. In New York, health officials are allowing businesses with onsite medical staff to apply for the vaccine.

Doctors for large companies can ask for the vaccine along with other doctors but must agree to vaccinate only high-risk employees like pregnant women and those with chronic illnesses, said Jessica Scaperotti, a spokeswoman for New York City's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

Other big New York City employers that have received doses of the vaccine include Columbia University, Time Inc., the Federal Reserve Bank and several hospitals. The distribution was first reported by Business Week.

17. This is an easy one!

In 21st century America the simple fact is that we are now officially serfs and they are the nobility. We need to know our station in life and respect that some of us are more equal than others.

.. one way to regulate Wall Street...
