I can't even be mad. I appreciate your honesty.
Edit: Hold up. There's more to it than this. If enough people die from disease, then society will break down. That breakdown poses a threat to your immediate family. Would you still prefer no mitigation and take your chances later in the Mad Max Thunderdome?

Any credible scientist who studied Covid before the outbreak, says Covid will easily walk around the vaccines. So my question for you, is when do you give up, and live your life, wave 4, 20, 200?

While post-apocalyptic is hyperbole, the fact remains that a lot of people dying at once is bad for business and society.
And that will affect your family. So even after that, you're saying what the US has done is still not worth it? There's no justifying it unless one of your kids die from it?

Hey, I am terrified to drive to work because the odds of a fatal car accident are astronomical. Everyone needs to pay me to not work because of the extreme risk. PAY UP MFers!!!!

I asked this at the beginning of the pandemic, I'll ask it again.
How many lives saved would it take to make shelter in place worth it to you?
1,000?
1,000,000?
1,000,000,000?
We're all rational men and women. There has got to be a calculus where mitigation to save X lives is worth the temporary sacrifices and expenditures we've suffered.
What's your number?

I'm living my life now. I'm fully vaccinated, I mask up in public. I went to the beach yesterday.

I think your sides argument is more, “I don’t care about who else might get hurt, I’m gonna chug this natty light and and then speed to hooters. Yeehaw.”

Sorry, the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome is also very real and dangerous. I can't risk my health for a job. You're just going to have to pay me to not work. It's the safest thing to do. In fact, the CDC said so, there's no debate.
