Has any culture or society ever had success using the “honor” system? We can’t even get military cadets at all the academies to be 100% on the honor code system and not lie or cheat as future military officers.
Well, I wouldn’t trust you, but then again, I don’t trust at least 90% of the human race…..and then some of them open their mouths and my distrust levels go through the bloody roof.
The good news is that the hard core anti vaxxers in the US have proven to be a small, albeit noisy, minority. And the fence sitters will come down from that fence eventually and in the vaccine line. I am glad that the US is sending Covid aid to India and other hard hit countries. I am fairly confident that by August or September, the only people who aren’t vaccinated against Covid will be the hard core anti vaxxers. The end to this is coming, just not as quickly as we’d like.

And that’s why I’ll continue to wear my mask. Stores should be able to check vaccination cards on people who want to enter maskless.

Therein lies the rub. An honor system requires a certain amount of actual honor in order to function.

A bit of inverse quotation from the WWII Fighting Seabees, if you will – a credo for these clowns:
“We, the unthinking, led by the conspiratorial unknowing, to do the denying for the selfishly ungrateful…”
“…have done so much denying with so little evidence, for so long…..”
“We now qualify to dismiss ANYTHING…. with NOTHING!”
