Goldman Sachs Group Inc (GS.N) told employees that from Tuesday anyone entering its offices in the United States must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

Goldman's new policy is in line with rival banks Morgan Stanley (MS.N) and Citigroup Inc (C.N), which also require vaccines at their U.S. headquarters.

Bank of America, which has so far not mandated the vaccines, is nonetheless asking that only vaccinated employees return when their offices reopen in September.

Mandates are here and will be spreading now following the FDA's approval.

I guess they REALLY don't want black people working for them. I always suspected as much.

Yes, play that race card for all it's worth. Meanwhile, a New NBC poll shows the percentage of blacks who are vaccinated is 76 percent, while whites are only at 66 percent.

But you keep pulling that good old race card whenever you can. It's all you've got.

It's not all I've got. I've written lengthy pieces against mandates on the Vaccine thread, and others, for months now. But I was being snarky, because it IS actually the impact of this policy and it is grossly hypocritical coming from the left who lectures us about DIVERSITY, 'equity of outcome' and 'disparate impact.'

Mandates are racist though, not because of disparate impact, but because of over-riding bodily autonomy and its connection to slavery. Wall Street has a hard time attracting black employees, and this won't help. Black vaccination rates in NYC are low.

All of these mandates--masks, vaccines-- are obedience rituals at this point. The masks that people wear don't work. The vaccines don't prevent spreading. All they really need to do is open windows or install ventilation systems, and let people work from home if they want to. Encourage everyone to stay home when sick. Everything else is authoritarian theater.
