The White House has urged businesses to comply with President Joe Biden’s coronavirus vaccine mandate, despite a court order to suspend enforcement of the rule.
“Our message to businesses right now is to move forward with measures that will make their workplaces safer and protect their workforces from COVID-19,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said during the daily briefing.
Say what? The courts said wait but the White House says go? Sounds just a bit authoritarian, don’t you think?
It’s not like you can return the vaccine if you don’t like it later. This isn’t a pair of shoes. This is a medical injection that enters your body.
Of course Americans should have the right to choose whether or not to do so. This is no longer about health. It’s about personal freedoms.
If a business must require vaccines and workers must take them, we’re on a path of government overreach bordering on socialism.
All you have to do is take a look at the massive protests in Europe and Australia that have broken out over harsh mandates to see where this will lead.
This is not following the science, unless you include political science. But Psaki spins the news as required as part of the impossible juggling act of representing the Biden administration. Check it out in the video below.
