What happens when ALL "private business" requires masks and the upcoming vax passport?
Yeah. This will never happen.
Wishful think all you want. It can and will happen. It's already happening in other "western" countries. It's time to realize that everything happening is part of a preplanned script. Saying "oh it will never happen here" is a coping mechanism which won't protect you
If it ever does, it will not be my problem anymore because I will be gone.
Ah the old boomer argument. (Not saying you're a boomer, I'm pretty sure you are not).
Hey, if I go down shooting I've done my part. It up to the rest of you then. I'm GenX.
Vax passports will be In america within the next 2 years. They're rolling them out in europe and australia first because "private business" have less legal rights. But you'll see them in America very soon (unless you go down shooting)
What would that look like in America? But I reserve the right to go out shooting.
Basically it'll be like a year ago when you had to wear a mask to enter a business. Instead of a mask, it will be a QR code linked to your smartphone which will confirm your vax compliance. It might also be one of those face scanners which "check your temperature"
And those businesses will have made the choice to require the passports, not the government? If so, I'll be fine. I did not wear a mask last year.
Yes. You have a very basic outlook on what's happening which boils down to- "yes private businesses can oppress me, but at least it's not the government". Obviously, at the end of the day, it really doesn't matter who is stopping you from buying food (whether it be a private business or monopoly or the government).
I do not believe ALL of the businesses that sell food where I live will require vaccine passports short of a government mandate. I live in a VERY conservative place. I have not even seen a face mask in over 3 months. There is no chance the even the majority of the local businesses were I live will require vaccine passports of their own volition.
Perhaps where you live most if not all will. I would move if that happened.
In america, it may be a forced lockdown like we already saw last year. More likely, it will be government locking down "private business" which don't play ball. That's the key. Everyone in power knows you are obsessed with "Muh private companies can do whatever they want". That's how they'll come at you
If the government mandates private business closures like we saw in California, that would be a serious problem.
The second thing is one of the corner stones of capitalism and American democracy. Of course I am obsessed. The real problem is that according to liberals private businesses cannot actually do whatever they want.
A private business should be able to require virtually anything of its employees and customers and those same employees and customers are free to take their business elsewhere if they do not like it.
