Even though my employer mandated it (in violation of the fourth amendment in my opinion - seizure of a person's immune system), he also accepted religious exemptions. For that I am thankful, but I was still terrified while waiting approval. At the time, I was watching the news about companies that refused all exemptions. Two were prominent at the time: Dell Computers and Carhartt. I will never purchase from either company EVER again. I know there are others, but those were the two that I selected to ban because of what I went through.

It also went against the Nuremberg Code, the Helsinki Declaration and possibly the Hippocratic Oath (that's been changed, so it's hard to say). I think it does go against the Constitution as well.

The legal profession can't make their $450+/hr when they go up against the all mighty gvnmt and lose. Most people are weak and afraid. If people were the opposite non of this insanity would be happening right now.

Was thinking more of the ACLU and other public interest law firms. But all lawyers are in the rights business and should be ashamed.

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

Unreasonable seizure of my person. We could destroy many companies and government agencies with this, providing we could find judges / justices who know how to define "person"...

Biden OSHA mandates had penalties of $13,600 per violation if companies with over 100 employees failed to test unvaxxed employees weekly. And then 10x the penalties for willful violations. Willful would be a greater risk with any vax zealots in the company.

Maybe it was just fear of the stick rather than carrots.

That's very interesting. I learned from a friend that amazon and fedex both only required their "white" collar employees to get vaxxed but not the warehouse people or drivers because they knew that they would walk off the job if there was a mandate. Her relative works for fedex and didn't get the shot.
