Biden will “force” unvaccinated people to get a shot

Your exactly right, comply to the businesses rules or move on, its your choice.
 
MTG tweeted some bullshit. Stop the presses.
 
Its tough shit, get vaccinated.
Or else. I get it. Collateral damage is acceptable. Destroying people's lives because the Government deems it's more important to get a vaccine than you keeping your job will not end well.
 
MTG is a ****ing insane nutter. But there are other nutters out there that will believe this nonsense. Goddamned nutters will ruin the Republic.
 

There is no side effect that is worse than getting the virus.

Of the 30,001,491 cases in the USA there was 29,376,745 (98%) Recovered / Discharged. A recovery rate that high is not bad. The 2% that died is nothing to sneeze at (no pun intended) but in a population of 331,002,651 people I'm not overly fearful of it.
 
What if every corporation in their field plays along with this? Where do they get a job?
They change industries, or get vaccinated.

And "plays along with this" implies that private businesses have no agency in this decision, that they're only doing it because Biden supports COVID vaccines. It's an insult to all those companies and their owners to suggest that they won't weigh the costs and benefits and do what's best for the company, shareholders/owners and employees/customers. If e.g. Delta or a cruise line or a hospital decides to require vaccines, do you not think they have valid business reasons to do so? Is there not a good reason for, say, a restaurant to require servers interacting with 50 customers a day in close quarters to get vaccinated to protect their diners, and make dining at their place as safe as possible for everyone, including the servers?

If you want the feds to tell private companies they CANNOT require a vaccine, then be clear about that - that you want Big Government to insert itself into the decisions of private companies about how these owners and managers determine to best serve shareholders/owners and protect their employees, patients, customers.
 
I want the Government to stay out of the business of telling corporations what to do. But that's not what is going on.
 
More time to finally start that business or finish that novel. Best of luck.
Yea, more time to spend with their family sitting around the campfire eating stale bread rummaged out of trash bins.
 
The stories and videos of the rejection these door knocking virtue Marxist will receive will be funny to watch.
 
This conversation has gone off the deep end.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has a vested interest in appealing to her based through fear and conspiracy theory. However, it makes our efforts to save lives, save healthcare costs and the damage Covid can do to people, and treat a pandemic as a pandemic even more difficult.

But this is what Republicans have become, anything but "pro-life."
 
Is that even the population of the US?
 

Considering that it has killed more Americans than WWII, that seems like a poor choice. I hope that you have been vaccinated.

The "Government" isn't doing anything in your hypothetical. You're making that up, and it's nonsense. Private companies are making the decisions, and you are dishonestly linking those hypothetical decisions to Government when that link simply doesn't exist. There is no government mandate, and Biden has said he opposes a government mandate.

It's right wingers who support employment at will laws, so-called 'right to work' laws, which give employers the right to fire someone for any reason or no reason. That's how it works in Tennessee. If you want Big Government to sign off on firings, and prohibit them from conditioning employment on vaccines of any kind, including COVID, say that.

I don't understand what you mean when you say this. Are you referring to DeSantis telling corporations what they can and can't do with masks, vaccinations etc. He is directly interfering with private corporations and their business decisions. It is either OK for the government to meddle or it isn't.
 
What is worse is that GOP leadership let's her away with this crap because they don't want to tick off Trump. Is that really the government they want? One who will lie for Trump even if that means killing fellow Americans?
I mean what can explain the Republican's bizarre capitulation to Trump. All one has to do is reflect back to the Republican debates when Trump towered over his opponents and insulted them with derogatory names ..they stood there taking it like cowards.

Trump admonishing Ted Cruz like the sorry ass bitch that he is.

Of course I have. I've also followed all the guidelines.

Covid will be with us for many years, just like the flu. Another virus that kills many people. We've learned how to live with it without mandating everyone get a flu vaccine.
 
Let me repeat. I want the Government to stay out of the business of telling corporations what to do.

Quote "the Government" telling businesses what to do.

The actual "government" supports vaccines. Seems rational because vaccines save lives. Not just COVID vaccines, but also many others. That's not a mandate.

Do you really think Delta Airlines or Walmart or Home Depot is going to require vaccines for someone, maybe customers, maybe employees, maybe both, because Biden says he supports widespread vaccinations? That's actually pretty idiotic as a suggestion, that major companies or small companies will sit around the board room and say, "Well, you know, Biden supports vaccines, so let's require everyone to get a vaccine or else we won't do business with them, and we'll fire all our employees who don't get vaccinated. Got to do what Biden says!! All in favor? UNANIMOUS!!!"

You've invented a hypothetical in your own mind that makes no sense at any level, then used this hypothetical to bash Big Government, when the actual government in the reality based world has said it does not support mandates, and there is NOTHING in the record to suggest mandates are even possible, and they sure as hell do not exist now. If businesses require vaccines because they want to for whatever reason, that's their CHOICE. If you don't think they should have that choice, say so.

Cool. No one in "the Government" is telling any business what to do with regard to COVID vaccines. Biden opposes mandates. Win for Biden!!
 
Its not about customers, its about employees.
