de Blasio goes full Lame Duck. NYC vaccine mandate.
« on: December 06, 2021, 09:53:08 AM »
NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio goes full on Lame Duck mode, issuing vaccine mandate on all private sector businesses.

NYC is already staggering under a wave of business closures and relocations exits. This won't help a bit. I fully expect courts to stay the order, but still, the sheer audacity of a mayor thinking they have that much authority is unbelievable.

Well, he is a leftist, so...
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

The mandate isn’t the bad part. The five year old and up vaccine passport is pretty bad. But people will accept it and go about their life.

Going about their lives can't be allowed.  They will come up with something else.  Gotta keep this going at least until the mid-term elections.

Sometimes we carry more weight then we owe.
