Supreme Court Sets Dangerous Precedent Of Letting The American People Make Medical Decisions For Themselves
2022-01-16
[Babylon Bee] U.S.—The SCOTUS has struck down Biden’s vaccine mandates on the grounds that they are unconstitutional. Experts say this sets a dangerous precedent of letting individuals make their own medical decisions.

"What am I supposed to do now that I don’t have private companies working with the Federal government to force me to inject a foreign substance into my body?" said Linda Waddlebum, a concerned mother of 6 cats. "So dangerous and shortsighted. How will I stay healthy? I don’t even recognize this America anymore."

In response to the court’s decision, a large group of protestors has gathered outside of the Supreme Court building. "Pfizer knows best! What they inject, I can’t object!" they chanted while ripping up copies of the constitution. "Give us petty tyranny or give us death! Abolish the Supreme Court!"

"You can’t give people choices! What if they make the wrong one? One that isn’t what I wanted them to do?" said Waddlebum. "Next thing you know, people will decide to send their kids back to school and return to work in person without masks."

At publishing time, people were dangerously continuing on with their lives making the best medical decisions possible for themselves and their families. They were even able to make these decisions without fear of losing their livelihood.

#4  On the other hand, Citicorp kept the mask mandate.

Their 4Q profits were down 29% from last year, but they are focusing on the important things!

#2  And you know, there are actually companies out there who are starved for people who are qualified, reliable, work hard, and can pass drug tests and / or background checks. They are generally not all that plentiful.

#1  As I said yesterday, without the figleaf of OSHA Mandate, companies with functional legal depts will recognize the financial/legal peril that Joe's directive to ignore SCOTUS will put them in:
