[QUOTE="India Actual, post: 33824, member: 80"] I had a gentleman at work comment to me about how it's not fair he has to show proof of a negative COVID test to travel into another country, but thinks it's unsettling that they let Floridians travel wherever they want in the United States. I promptly told him I was just in Florida for two weeks and I wasn't wearing a mask the entire time. You should have seen his eyes nearly bug out of his head. I received great pleasure from that moment and I will cherish it for a long time. Oh and I took a test before I came back to work and I was negative even after being in "anti-vax/mask hell" for two weeks. So how about that? ;) I'm not highlighting what you said to be judgmental, but I want to make a point to show how different most European countries are ideologically from the United States. It's bizarre to most Americans that they are having something forced upon them by the government. The last time the government made people do something against their will it was to send young men to Vietnam during the military draft in the 1960's and 70's. That doesn't exist anymore so no American here has any context whatsoever to have the government impose things upon them whether they agree with it or not. I understand the situation in Europe is very different. You have much smaller, mostly homogenous populations, you're surrounded on nearly every border by neighboring countries in the Schengen zone where people can travel without any border checks. It's simply a case of what best fits for your specific situation. [/QUOTE]
