Maybe…I think it looks that way especially with the rise of “woke” in business which I think is BS a business is not benevolent.
More so they are going along with this trend for as long as it’s good for business…it’s along the same lines of promoting good “work life balance” which is a great buzz phrase as long as it’s good for business

If I owned a business in Florida I’d move.
As far as I’m concerned if your out in public you should have 2 choices. Get backed or wear a mask. Failure to do so should result in a mandatory 14 day quarantine
And there are already numerous lawsuits by Florida businesses that seek to overturn that law.

So now the rubber hits the road.

Where do people stand on this issue?
Here are some of the steps some companies are taking:
“You must be vaccinated if you want to come to work,” he tells me. “There are some organizations that are trying one more step before that. They’re saying, if you choose not to be vaccinated, then you will have to be tested several times during the week on your own dime . And you will have to wear a mask in the workplace and not any mask, but that N95 surgical mask. I mean, we are going to, at the end of the day, make this a little uncomfortable for you because you’re making it uncomfortable and the workplace less comfortable for your colleagues.”
That’s the case for MGM Grand (MGM). Unvaccinated workers must regularly test for the virus, and if found positive, they will quarantine – without pay .
I, personally, am completely in favor of this. Businesses free to do what they want…correct?
I expect there will be lawsuits…will be interesting to watch people’s reactions.
Thoughts?
Awesome we support tyranny here in the US! You guys are about have a reckoning come 2022.

The problem is…just like goverment when they take a side they only alienate other side.
It’s why I advocate that goverment should always be neutral…and I guess so should corporations.

JayJay:
If COVID spreads through their employees, their bottom line will take a hit.
If cases spike in the country, their bottom line could also take a hit.
What do you mean if?
Of course it will.
Do you (c) really think you (c) can control this?

Which is why they want to mitigate the risk and now that a vaccine is out well that’s the ultimate in mitigation technology

I support capitalism and the right of businesses to do what they want and set employment policies as they want.
Don’t you?
