It is called CMS which is the bane of those working in healthcare. They set the pay scale as well. They will just turn off the money faucet to begin with. Other consequences will follow.

Not if they had said money can't be tied to individual health decisions of employees of those companies. How far does that extend? Could the .gov say no more contracts for you until all employees have electric vehicles since global warming is a existential health crisis?

Jeezus, Skins...don't give those phukktards any ideas!!!!

In the 1970’s the Supreme Court ruled if a state accepts Federal funds for Highway safety, repair etc… the speed limit is 55 to accept the funds. If a hospital is accepting Federal funding, Medicare/Medicaid the jab can be required, similar reasoning.

Which is why the federal contractor requirement is likely to stay also. That's going to be the interesting challenge. Right now anyone registered on SAM.gov must show compliance with the commmunist edict of sniffy the pedo.

It is more complicated than you can imagine. No hospital can run without CMS. Can the military run without funding from the Defense Department? I don't like it one bit. Ask your physician about Medicare and Medicaid. They are allowed to dictate such things as vaccination just like the military.

In dissent, the court's three liberals argued that it was the court that was overreaching by substituting its judgment for that of health experts. “Acting outside of its competence and without legal basis, the Court displaces the judgments of the Government officials given the responsibility to respond to workplace health emergencies," Justices Stephen Breyer, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor wrote in a joint dissent.

Quick question. Do you dipshits know who was responsible for there being LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE DEATHLY ALERGIC TO PEANUTS?

I'll save you the brain work: Health Experts. My own kid's pediatrician said, "Oh yeah we got that one wrong. That was our bad. You should totally expose your kids to peanuts and peanut butter very early on."

Dipshits.

You missed the boat too. These GD black garbed morons are so stupid its painful to even read their twaddle. Hey retards, what if healthcare "professionals/experts" decreed the best way to stop the virus was to simply exterminate a couple hundred Americans deemed to be the primary spreaders? Would ya still defer to the 'experts'? Your F'ing job, which you have no goddamn clue about, is to determine if the mandates are legal under existing law. Healthcare expert opinions don't even factor into that discussion. We now have concrete proof that 30% of SCOTUS is simply too stupid to allow to weigh in on anything.

Which one of the SCOTUS lunkheads said in the arguments that they- essentially- weren't aware of the Tenth Amendment? Kagan? Sotomayor?

Sotomayor. The wise latina woman.

“I’m not sure I understand the distinction why the states would have the power [to institute a mandate such as OSHA’s], but the federal government wouldn’t,” stated the associate justice.

White House Spokesperson Jennifer Psaki said the Biden administration would “not be deterred” by the Supreme Court decision, and all employers should immediately continue to “initiate vaccination requirements.”

I'm guessing some companies will still attempt to force it. I also would imagine they open themselves up for lawsuits?

The whole silly hysteria will wind down...Omicron is the 'vaccine' that we can only dream about. This is the last gasp for the leftist. After the midterms, the clueless fockers may never get close to national power again. They ran in the center and ruled from the far left. We'll live with this germ and future scholars will have the fun job of explaining how we were just another country failed by it's worthless political class.

Seeing more and more people here not wearing a mask in places that require it. The spell is breaking for some. We may finally be getting to a point where reasonable people have had enough, especially with the panic of this next “wave.” I’m also getting more overtly hostile vibes from some others who are still entranced. The next six months are going to be interesting here.

Didn’t take an hour for my company to send out the blast to stop any further discussions with our folks. The mandate is dead, we’re not going to enforce anything.

ooo-rah!

Hakuna Matata, bitchezz

President Two Scoops just can't catch a break. Why is that, I wonder?

My daughter and both my sons breathed a huge sigh of relief today knowing they cannot be forced into the jab. Someone needs to file for impeachment now. Telling companies to ignore the rule of law and do his bidding certainly must be impeachable.

Did y'all hear/read the dissenting opinion? Good Lord. What an embarrassment. They're not guided by law. Three of the six of the prevailing opinion were put on the court by Trump. Thank God.

Consider this as a possible situation. You and your wife 'could' have regular influenza (rapid tests are notorious for being inaccurate, hence the reason she tested positive and you negative). Also, I don't think the rapid tests are super accurate in telling the difference between influenza (which is a corona virus) and Covid. At any rate, the treatment for both is very similar, so keep doing what you're doing and fingers crossed, you and your wife will get to feeling better real soon.

I think then after the scheduled PCR COVID test today, I will go to a clinic and get tested for the flu. That way if it is, I can get something like Tamiflu and be taking within 48 hours of initial symptoms.

I ended up being able to see my doctor today for the flu test, but based on what I told them they wanted to do a COVID test first. I tested positive this time. Since I am high-risk, they are going to set me up for the monoclonal infusion, but that will probably be four days out due to shortages.

Before my appointment, I stopped by two Tractor Supply stores that online showed they had ivermectin in stock and both were totally sold out. They had warning signs posted not to be buying it for human consumption.

Companies and even States ("vaccine" passports) aren't prohibited from requiring people from getting this shot as a result of this ruling. It prohibits the feds. Just fyi.

Good luck with your Monoclonal Antibodies Infusion. It worked very well for my wife.
