You revolted against our Government’s demands for masks, vaccines, school closures and social distancing during the pandemic as an intrusion upon parents and individuals’ discretion to make decisions as they deem best for them. That is, don’t tread on my choices.
And, my position then and now is “do as you are told” during a pandemic or World War or hurricane. But, let’s assume that for this post, we agree that our Government ought not tread on our decision-making. If Tampa believes a COVID vaccination or a mask is nonsense, then Tampa should be free to say “no thanks.”
Why then is it suddenly OK for President Trump to demand law firms or universities or institutions to “do as you are told,” or suffer repercussions?
