According to NPR , Quebec is about to impose a financial penalty against adult residents who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19.
Why? Premier Francois Legault said not getting vaccinated leads to consequences for the health care system and not all Quebecers should pay for that. How much will the unvaccinated be expected to pay? Legault said the amount of the penalty hasn’t been decided, but will be ‘significant’. Presumably, that means something like ‘high enough to make people reconsider their selfish, anti-social behavior, but not so high that they can’t afford to pay it’. We can look to other countries, though, to get some idea of what ‘significant’ means. In Greece, those over 60 have until Jan. 16 to get their first jabs or be fined 100 euros ($113) for every month they remain unvaccinated. Austria’s health minister announced last month the government plans to impose fines of up to 3,600 euros (around $4,000) on people who flout a coronavirus vaccine mandate it aims to introduce in February for all residents age 14 and over. Meanwhile, out in California, Governor Newsom has indicated that he would like to see the legal framework that Texas has constructed to prevent abortions […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We just launched a new GiveSendGo page. We also have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!

This is exactly why socialized healthcare is a very bad idea. It creates dependencies where none need reasonably exist, mainly because participation is not voluntary. People begin pointing fingers complaining and arguing about who’s costing who, who’s contributing what, etc. And anyone can be targeted as a supposed burden on the system and a burden on others, for just about any reason imaginable.
What’s next? Fine the elderly? Fine the unhealthy? Fine people for eating certain foods? Fine people for not getting enough exercise? Fine people who do more dangerous work? Get rid of all the supposedly “unfit” ????
