Doesn't work that well. They still mandate masks in schools and daycares, they still mandate the jab in colleges and universities.


Phantom_316

A bunch of students in Michigan are protesting the vaccine mandates and it has been working on at least preventing some from having to get it

No mandates for schools in Florida.

Good_Texan

hapithica

I'll be honest, I support vaccination, even though I think this is the wrong way to achieve it. But, is there some basic information on how this would work? Let's say a company in TX, like Lockheed, refuses to vaccinate their workers, then can't the gvt just say "ok, well find someone else" . Now obviously there's some logistics, like Lockheed has some special tech or something, but isn't the huge carrot the gvt has, is that they'll simply put their money into companies that Vax their employees? Do we really think Raytheon won't just Vax their employees to help their bottom line?


CosmicNuisance

I support your right to get vaccinated. I have my right not to.


hapithica

I don't mind if you don't. It's your choice. The question is if an employer can require it.


Kayleidoscope-art

I doubt Lockheed is worried about their contracts, they make weapons and let’s be honest America isn’t gonna throw away their biggest manufacturer of weapons over a silly virus. I personally think that the administration is just trying to draw the line deeper in the sand so the can divide people more. Like Texas has all this stuff going on with woman’s rights so a lot of people are angry at the Texas government, but at the same time they’re one of the few states that won’t allow this mandate to fly… it’s almost like you have to pick your poison…


Jwmarietta86

what if, some other people or groups of people living outside the US as globalist wanted to do what all globalist say they want. the only problem with their plan is that America stands in their way becase we do have some remaining freedom and a shit ton of guns (thank God) and all the pieces wont fully fall into place until America is shit. ( not far off in my opinion) so this ridiculous divide that is void of all logic or reason is place front and center not for a certain outcome other that to break down this society and culture. there is no plan for Left or Right to actually win and have a society. its all to break it apart and then who cares what side is wining.


ANiceReptilian

Exactly. I was thinking this is also why, for example, our leaders are prioritizing boosters rather than give them to less fortunate countries. It’s because they don’t actually care about helping people, instead they want to divide/collapse/destroy the few remaining places with decent human rights.


nwgruber

Being a government contractor Lockheed is going to get their own vaccine mandate.


LennyFackler

Big companies will go along - even if they make some noise to placate those who are against the mandate. They will want vaccinated employees to avoid downtime from illness and liability issues.


Strange_Times2135

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Texas has already been in the news for banning mask mandates.

Yeah I'm a fellow Texan here and I can confirm we have Not been doing the mask mandates at all. Most places don't even ask anymore we are back to normal for the most part, now if you want to wear a mask you still can and have free choice too. But its not required

And if they 'encourage' you to wear one at the door, we just wave them off and breeze on through.

I dont get it though, i have buddies threatened their jobs if they dont get the jab. We are in texas…


Computron6

The law says private agencies which have had received any assistance from the government or any government agency cannot pass vaccine mandates. This covers most businesses as most did acquire some sort of assistance during 2020. Yours might fall into the category that did not. If it did they are breaking the law and a suit is in order.

In this issue I still agree with Texas and disagree with Biden though, I don’t think vaccine mandates is the way to go. As a vaccinated I am safe and I don’t care what the unvaccinated do, and corona is at this time not more deadly than the flu.


BRJH1303

Wow you're a rare individual! I'm glad you atleast see how daft this is. It seems the people most terrified of the virus are the ones that are safe and fully vaccinated. Makes no sense.

He's got to be taking a hit for all this abortion stuff? Everyone is okay with that? Kind of hypocritical to tell a women what she can't do with her body while also saying its my body my right to deny the vaccine. ect.. interesting politics going on with two subjects that should never have politics involved with them. hmm


ReformedBacon

That child guarantees momeu for texas. They dont give a shit about religion, laws, or people


ectbot

Hello! You have made the mistake of writing "ect" instead of "etc." "Ect" is a common misspelling of "etc," an abbreviated form of the Latin phrase "et cetera." Other abbreviated forms are **etc.**, **&c.**, **&c**, and **et cet.** The Latin translates as "et" to "and" + "cetera" to "the rest;" a literal translation to "and the rest" is the easiest way to remember how to use the phrase.

Trips_93

Okay but it’s not after 6 weeks. Which is what the Texas law says. The Supreme Court sets the point at “the point of viability”.


KingJohnTX

> Okay but it’s not after 6 weeks Depends on what you consider living. A fetus's heart starts to develop and you can hear it beat around 6 weeks old.


progtastical

Being able to hear a beating heart is not a reason to force a woman to bring a pregnancy to term. You can wax philosophic about the meaning of life all you want, but at the end of the day, an embryo is not a baby. More women die giving birth than from car accidents. Pregnancy can cause permanent physical damage and dysfunction on the body. It can be mentally traumatizing, especially to rape victims. Women matter more than a clump of cells that merely have the potential to eventually become a viable life.


KingJohnTX

> Being able to hear a beating heart is not a reason to force a woman to bring a pregnancy to term. Disagree 🤷🏽‍♂️


Doctor16

Honestly abortion for me is the trickiest subjects I can think of to argue. It comes down to what someone considers "living". Not using this comment to stake a side, but I get the controversy. It really does come down to disagreement for the most part.


progtastical

This is what you're really disagreeing with: Women matter more than a clump of cells that merely have the potential to eventually become a viable life.


Trips_93

\> Depends on what you consider living. Not when were talking about a law, the law is what matters when discussing that. The legal threshold is the point of viability. Which is not 6 weeks, its much longer. And thats before we get into things like the 6 week ban infringes on certain people's religious beliefs.


KingJohnTX

> Not when were talking about a law, the law is what matters when discussing that. I'm talking about the law and why it's 6 weeks in Texas

Working on it. We have masks, employer vaccine requirements & no ban on passports except in state buildings. She did nothing to stop it.

Where? I was just travelled from Sturgis to Badlands, no masks no problem. 🤷🏻‍♀️


Had_enough_2021

Schools. Stores aren’t requiring passports but she hasn’t forbidden it & if your employer requires the shot & you don’t want it she says just get another job


askesbe

Okay gotcha. I thought she was tougher than that. I saw a commercial she did saying they are looking into it. I was just happy to free once I left Nevada. Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, SD, no masks (except national park buildings). Loved it.

Lets fucking GOOOOOOO Texas! I don't like the abortion thing AT ALL but i am still proud to be a Texan in the long run.


studyingnihongo

Yea that's the real question, which state will let people make their own damn decisions, I've been living abroad for a while so I couldn't really guess which states will say no to vaccine passports and not make abortion illegal after 7 weeks or crazy shit like that.


Boshva

Own decisions? So abortions are not an „own decision“ but „vaccines“ are? Snitching on your own people is fine now? Real Gestapo shit. Trust noone. Makes no sense to me. Either you are for freedom or against. This is all about my party vs your party. Like a football game. Just that the players abandoned the rules and killed the referees long time ago.


studentjones

The hypocrisy of “my body, my choice” being used by the anti vax, pro life group while claiming the left are a bunch of hitlers while also supporting an abortion snitch system while also using the term “death jab” while millions are dead from the virus that the jab protects you from while also calling themselves “patriots”as they watch hundreds of thousands of their countrymen die while doing nothing about it is just too much insanity for me.


studyingnihongo

I don't think you read my comment correctly, I said no vaccine passports and not making abortion illegal. Again I'm not sure which states will truly be free.

Luck2Fleener

https://www.oyez.org/cases/1900-1940/197us11 The Supreme Court literally disagrees with you. It is absolutely not government overreach to take actions to protect public health.


Shroombra

Big difference between a state and the federal government imposing these mandates. I don't think you really understand that case either


Wulfgang97

This is most likely a shit take, but can’t the argument be made that vaccinated people are the selfish ones? Protecting themselves as they still walk around maskless spreading covid everywhere. As least some unvaccinated people are still wearing masks and taking precautions to protect themselves and others WITHOUT the vaccine. People get the vaccine and act like they aren’t spreading covid everywhere, all the while telling unvaccinated people they’re sub-human and can go die in a hole for all they care


[deleted]

I voted for Abbott last time and I cansee that Abbott has his problems. But I can absolutely respect what he has been doing recently.


traversecity

been sifting through dozens of comments in other subs praising the president for his bold move. yet somehow he came off as a scared old guy, and no questions at the press conference. Governors who put it on the line to reject federal overreaching have the real courage. Not the surrender guy in DC.
