I don't know where this is going, but it's big. I can't help but think he's going to have to eat some of his proclamations.
"Oh hey, you longshoremen over there, I say you have to run 24 hour shifts and you have no standing." "Vacc up and work 24/7 right now!" How well do you think that goes over with the dockworkers??
They can put the whole country out of business if they feel like it.
I've never seen such insanity, he's a raving lunatic.
Edit to add today's edict from on high: "Biden wants Port of LA to work 24/7"
I think they got more pushback then they thought and have the explicit goal of "fake it 'til you make it". So they will attempt to make the people pushing back believe they are the only ones doing so in the hopes that they will drive enough conformance until that is actually true. So whatever the resistance, expect the government and media to act as though it is minimal and acceptable.
I also believe that the government is is a position to bail out companies who comply with vaccination requirements for quite some time, and people who resist should prepare to be engaged in a multi-year fight.
I also think that if the government thought they could roll up to your house, kick down the door, throw you on the ground, and inject you involuntarily, they would do so; so the fact they aren't suggests they themselves think they lack some level of authority to do so. Which is a silver lining to the whole ordeal.
The longshoremen have raised hell many times before with many of the same nope tactics/ iirc they always win.
They're union, they're very tight, and they have work contracts. These agreements cannot be altered until they expire and are re-negotiated; the terms of current contracts stand as is. Biden can't just walk in and tell the Longshormen's union that all the terms are changed tomorrow.
Crazytown meets unexpected blockade. Then what happens?
Call in the National Guard?
That seems to be their solution to everything.
Yep. Saw they're already having Nat'l Guard administering Coof shots since so many health staff had to quid over mandates in Massachusetts.
Historically: violence.
War Production Act making treason to strike.
What about quitting en masse? Are you gonna be thrown in jail for changing careers? That seems like it wouldn't go over very well.
Also they'd need to spin up another war. Maybe this is how we end up going to a hot war with China? But that doesn't seem like it'd be very good gambit for them at the moment with our military degenerating into a social experiment rather than an organization designed to kill people.
It's not about the vaccines per se, it's about making people comply. Forcing people at gunpoint isn't compliance, so it doesn't further their goals. You have to actually love Big Brother. You have to be made to come to terms with it on your own, otherwise they haven't really got you.
