By the way, I'm all for wearing seat belts, wearing helmets, and getting my covid vaccine but, as an adult, I'm not about being forced, by law, to do it.
Would it be fair to charge higher health insurance premiums for people that don't wear helmets or don't get the covid vaccine? Both those things effect insurance costs and are a burden on first responders.
Where do we draw the line?
Absolutely--people who engage in high risk behavior should pay more for insurance. And I'm pretty sure they do--smoking and sky diving were both on the form last time I bought life insurance.

I'm sure you respect their rights as a business to charge whatever prices they'd like
