You don't have the right to drive drunk because your decision can endanger other people. Your decision not to get vaccinated also endangers other people. (If it just endangered you alone, I'd say fine. Do what you want. But it doesnt work that way!)

laws. We were all working together in the early 90's when they raised the drinking age, lowered the allowed blood alcohol limit, and put in tougher penalties.

Think of the the bar owners, think of the jobs! They are ruining all our fun for something that is 99.6% survivable! Way better than that really. I mean what were the odds back then, even when drunk driving was rampant? With this pandemic, we had people perfectly willing to kill hundreds of thousands over jobs and money. You didn't hear one word of that crap over the DUI's. Any public servant that argued that, MADD would have had their ass!
