OSHA Mandate Struck Down

But it's not all good news out of SCOTUS this week

This week the Supreme Court struck down Biden’s OSHA mandate in what is undeniably good news. However, lurking just past the headlines lie worrying undercurrents that the government’s ability to override your medical preferences is still growing.

Healthcare Worker Mandate Upheld

The most obvious red flag is the healthcare worker mandate being upheld. Here, the court basically found that if government is paying for a service (in this case Medicare/Medicaid), then they get to establish the rules for payment of that service.

That thought should be terrifying, because it’s only a stone’s throw to “If you want to USE Medicare/Medicaid, you must be vaccinated” or even “If you want to get Social Security, you must be vaccinated.” It’s even LESS distance to “Actually, you need a booster (or two).” And if this is allowed to stand, you can bet your bottom dollar that it won’t stop at THIS ‘vaccination.’ Whatever product Big Pharma rolls out next will certainly be added to the ‘regular’ rotation….

We already know how this goes. Unjabbed nurses will be fired, many of whom already got over covid and have better protection than the vaccinated, and hospitals will be closed.

The Long Beach Emergency Department, operated by Mt. Sinai South Nassau hospital system, fired about 72 employees who had religious exemptions from the jab mandate. The state officially ended all religious exemptions for healthcare workers on Monday.

“Some of these six dozen employees are ER nurses who the hospital said are not easily replaced due to training and other factors,” NBC New York reported. “The emergency department, which sees about 10,000 visitors annually, will be closed for at least a month.”

Pretty embarrassing for a state to blow up the healthcare system that everybody had to stay home to save. California was faced with the same problem, so now they’re allowing covid-positive nurses to work.

With the highly infectious omicron variant continuing to surge, California is taking an unprecedented step to try to avoid an overwhelmed health care system: allowing doctors and nurses who test positive for the virus to return to treating patients immediately, so long as they are asymptomatic and masked up.

This is literal madness. The state fires unvaccinated workers, many of whom have already beaten covid and can’t pass along the virus, and then tells COVID-POSITIVE nurses they must come back to work to alleviate the worker shortage caused by the initial firings! Clearly this is all about public health.

To see an example of what we avoided by dodging the OSHA mandate, take a look to Washington state, where the mountain passes filled with snow and the state refused help from unvaccinated county workers.

After all, Jay Inslee doesn’t suffer when the passes are untraversable. It doesn’t cost HIM anything to have the state come to a standstill. (Thank you, mail-in voting!) This is yet another example of why central planning always fails. The ‘leaders’ become hyper-focused on one thing, to the exclusion of everything else. So we get huge disruptive NPIs (which aren’t even effective) so just so the politicians can claim they are doing something.

This is why we have cities like New York and Chicago demanding vaccine passes, while most the country has already moved on. (Spoiler alert, Chicago hospitals are still 85% full)

Let’s remind ourselves of what that looks like in real-life:

How many NYPD does it take to traumatize a child trying to eat dinner? Roughly this many… Please let me know when enough is enough for you

All for a vaccine that doesn’t stop transmission. And they know this. Yet Biden is still yelling at companies to impose their OWN vaccine mandates, even after being shot down in the courts. This is standard practice for Biden, who’s acting like the dictator the press told us Trump was.

Edit: Just read this and it’s too good not to add:

“Washington is the Joe Biden of states.”
