Why do Politicians and elected officials get to cut to the head of the line for COVID Vaccine.

The question for Nancy and Mitch, what gives you the right to take the shot away from someone at greater risk?

These people think they are special. I say bullshit. They are just citizens and have no more rights to privilege than anyone else.

Yes, maybe the President and critical national security staff. Maybe, most everyone has a back up. The president goes down we have a vice president and even a process for if we lose both of them. In the various departments of the executive they certainly have a succession plan. In congress, we could lose 50% and not only be fine. Maybe we would be better off. That would be better than term limits.

If I find out that Bill Gates gets the vaccine before I am eligible I will pitch a serious fit. I don’t have anything against Bill Gate it is just in my mind not right that wealth provide certain privileges like access to scarce resources that should be provided based on need not wealth. If you need a liver transplant it should not matter how much money you have. It should matter who is the best qualified recipient.
