Last Thursday, Ian Millhiser, a senior correspondent at Vox, published a controversial tweet arguing that the government should tax unvaccinated people at 99% as a means to coerce them into getting the jab.

While the exact figure Millhiser attached to his tax proposal is (probably) hyperbolic, I suspect the sentiment underlying it is not. People like him seem to think it would be ethical to inflict financial harm upon those making healthcare choices with which they disagree.
