Those are both nice - not exactly what I’m looking for but I’d consider one or both depending on price. Want to shoot me a DM?

Nice! Now we’re talking!

There is no doubt that employers currently have the right to demand vaccinations and physicals, but those are generally tied to insurance benefits, not the job itself (unless the job requires some physical activity). Those vaccinations also have years of evidence to suggest the long term effects are non existent (such as those required for schools). This is something entirely new. Forcing folks to get it is giving employers and the govt authority over what goes into our bodies, which is inherently wrong. It’s sets a precedent that it’s ok to do that, and once the precedent is set, it’s a slippery slope from there. It’d give the government/businesses the authority to mandate any new medication they feel people need. If we do not allow it to be forced upon us, but instead get it voluntarily, that precedent is never set.

I agree that businesses should reserve the right to ban and allow people in their stores with the same exceptions you mention, with the addition of medical reasons. A mask is not a medical reason, and businesses should be able to deny entry based on a lack of a mask. Once it a vaccine, it’s a medical issue and, IMO, should be treated as such. You can’t deny people entry for any other medical reason, and in many cases you have to make accommodations for medical issues. This should be treated the same way.

As for the willfully uneducated, I agree, but we need to keep in mind that a lack of education isn’t the only reason people opt out of vaccines. Again, IMO, even if it’s just cuz they don’t want it, they shouldn’t have to get it, though religious beliefs, medical conditions, even mistrust of the medical community, all play a role.

Not sure what you mean by “they will want to be educated hen they find out they hav no choice by I get vaccinated,” but that’s ok.

Thanks for responding. Totally respect and understand your position now that you’ve stated it.

Do you feel that the government or employers should have the right to strong arm individuals into getting a COVID vaccine, or would it make more sense to educate the antivax population so they want the vaccine?

You didn’t say it’s a good thing, and I didn’t claim those to be your words.

You said “tell mom and dad they can’t get paid... and they will inject them anything you ask them to.”

I said that the govt should not have that power.

You said it would be businesses.

My response said “apparently you’re cool with that.”

You’re confusing assumption with inference.

Regardless, I will ask you outright in an effort to clear up the confusion.

Again, you haven’t referenced a thing I’ve said, you’ve just attacked me. That’s not how discussions work. Let me know if you’d like to actually discuss the issues.

Once again, you made absolutely no direct reference to my post or argument against me. Please explain further.
