Even when our economy was unquestionably doing well (rising GDP, rising wages, lower unemployment for women and minorities, etc etc) there was a consistent 40% "Disapprove of Trump's handling of the economy"

you already said you'd never get vaxxed and never wear a mask. Why would you care?

I'm following the science and I've come to the very unsettling conclusion that postal workers are not human. Not sure what they are, but I know they don't need to be vaccinated.

Numbers don't support that at all. Lots of Dems are against things the Admin is doing, or are generally not happy with Biden

Axios poll says 3 out of 6 Americans support Biden's COVID plan.

We live in conservative South Carollina. Husband's company -- local boys who like their conservative politics.
They had a policy of unvaccinated wearing mask in office and that was it.
Today they introduced the policy of proof of full vaccination and weekly tests for those refusing to get vaccinated.

IT remains to see if they implement the procedures to enforce the rules.

Time will tell.

I wish there was no federal policies to push these policies. I wish that people would make decisions based on what we know with the hospitalization rates/numbers, etc....and out of consideration for others.

Masks indoors if you can't socially isoalte and aren't vaccinated. That's all.

But usually if you are taking a stand on no vaccine you will stake a stand on no masks.
Mask indoors even if you are vaxed. We need to get away from the thinking that just because you are vaccinated that it returns life to the way it was pre covid (aka no masks or distancing). It is not good to let the virus be caught at free will as it gives it more chances to mutate.

Lots? Taken within a week after 13 Americans died in Afghanistan:

These shared concerns may partly explain why Biden's overall approval rating has shown more erosion among Democrats over the last two weeks (dropping from 86 percent to 80 percent)

I'd call 86% pretty damn "happy"

lmfao.

Do you know how many union workers there are today, vs non-union workers?

the Dept of Labor/OSHA says "over 100 employees must be vaxxed or tested, or we'll fine you $14K/person/occurrence"

Yes, the US economy would grind to a halt if everyone of those folks said "F you Joe", but the reality is the businesses couldn't bring them back a week later ... unless they vaxxed or tested regularly. And who is going to pay your for not working?

How many of you non-vaxxers think you are so indispensable that your employer will be "OK, so you choose not to vaccinate. Let me pay $50 every week for you to get tested."


What makes you think that employers won't just throw you out like the trash and go hire vaccinated folks? You think you are uniquely skilled and irreplaceable?

Some people are getting ready to "bootstrap" themselves.

Not mad, angry. Angry that some people so enthusiastically trample on individual rights.

Mad comes when I and others are no longer able to legally provide for our families because those that are so eager to trample on individual rights based on "political science" ignore the "real science" that I am less likely to spread COVID they are.
