It'd be pretty awesome if they took it to court and the courts ruled it was a private business, thus shutting down governmental vaccine mandates entirely.

It won't happen, but that's be kinda cool.

With that said, it's time we stop the "private business" argument. At this point we're being too principled and allowing the other side to mandate private businesses left and right, but we refuse to do it ourselves. If private businesses don't have the right to not hire a black person, then the "private business" argument is moot, imo.
