I am surprised that they made an intelligent decision. Maybe they could talk to the school board.

If they had passed it, most people would have ignored it anyway. They are tired of being punished because of those who won't get vaccinated and those who won't are just idiots who don't care about others

Science stated that the commonly used masks do not protect against a virus. Now, suddenly, they do? Too many contradictions. COVID seems to be a smoke screen, hiding what is happening to our country. I am far more concerned with the increase in divisive activities and rampant crime.

Until this virus is under control, with Boone County a hotspot, not requiring masks will keep it spreading. There was progress being made with guidelines in place. Everyone was getting back to life. This is what responsible people want. So many lost lives, so sad, and could have been avoided.

How stupid to say that masks don't work.... Why does your doctor wear one during surgery?

We never won against the ranked teams. Now we made our head coach one the highest paid in the college.

Mizzou football fans and boosters need to make a decision. Are we as content as fans with the job Drinkwitz is doing. If winning 8, 9, or 10 wins a season is good enough, the keep giving Drinkwitz and his staff contract extensions.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade
