What is sad is people like Lois who think that if I brush my teeth it protects her teeth. Nope. Your vaccine should help you, these are being shown to have more side effects than others, are under EUA, and against Nuremberg code and our Constitution Federal and Missouri.

Liberals believe what suits themselves, regardless of science or facts. If they repeat a lie often enough, it becomes true, in their little world.

Lisa White

Because we have rights as citizens. Our health should be our decision, not Joe Biden.

To be vaccinated protects others not just yourself

Many employees support such a vaccine mandate. The Faculty Council approved a resolution urging such a mandate at the Columbia campus.

Not one single death has been recorded from Omicron, yet it will give everyone who gets it antibodies. Omicron is the beginning of the end, to the Covid-19 Pandemic, and the end to the communist fear Agenda.

Everyone needs to be vaccinated so we can control the spread and the mutation of this virus. Why is it that we willingly are vaccinated for the flu,measles,mumps, ect. but resist a free life saving vaccine? Think of the money and lives saved if we can control the outbreak of more mutations

Niki Goldenstein

It should not be mandated, it should be a choice. We need more information on the vaccine.

Carolyn Youngberg

They have a responsibility to their students, faculty, administrators and university workers to keep them safe. Bowing to political pressure does nothing for the safety and health of these people.

I guess students don`t need to be protected from COVID. .... OH WAIT!.....a high percentage of people who are contracting the latest strain of the virus are young people

Max

This is Big Pharma's Current Cash Cow. Protection against Omicron coronavirus variant improves with three vaccine doses, Pfizer says. Pfizer says, Buy my Snake Oil and you will live forever. ROTFLOL

Lisha Lammers

Mask mandates work!

Max

No they don't. Florida has the lowest infection rate in the Nation, and they have used less masking and all other precautions, than all other states.

Adam Schrader

Let's make it even more unsafe to be in Columbia. Good idea.....sigh

That's how blue cities work, tax, tax, tax, and tax some more.

Zaos Gonzolez

Tax to the MAX. Tax till you drop, and it still don't stop!

Zaos Gonzolez

I believe with all my heart that Columbia residents should donate their entire paychecks to the City. If the City had ALL of the money, it would solve ALL of the problems.

This is what Columbia just voted in. Great job!!!!

Debbie Neate

They want to raise taxes because the “sales taxes are less than expected”. Could this be due to Columbia’s citizens not shopping downtown, etc. as they do not. Want to deal with addicts, vagrants and panhandlers. Lower revenues are due to administrators poor policies and other choices ie..plan fine

Susanna Johnson Kettlewell

Get rid of the unnecessary positions created the past 3 years! The answer is to reduce the size of government, NOT raise taxes! Columbia's sales tax rate is already too high. Continue letting crime and homelessness flourish, raise taxes, and people will leave the city,

Allan German

Why not cut the city official salaries by a few thousand dollars each to help make up some of the money that the city is looking for? But I doubt a single city official would be willing to do that even though most of them live better than the rest of the city.

Zaos Gonzolez

The recorder of deeds salary alone is over $96,000!!!!!!!!!!!! TRULY INSANE. Most of us can never even imagine that amount of money.

Will Mason

Not until after ALL avenues for budget cuts have been explored Taxes are too high already.

Zaos Gonzolez

If you are alive, there is no such thing as too many taxes. EVEN when you are unalive, you are taxed.
