So I read the opinion. (I'm a retired lawyer of 40+ years, though no expert in OSHA/labor matters.) The grounds for the decision are narrow, no doubt based on the issues as presented and argued. We'll take the result, surely, but the sole basis of the decision was that OSHA exceeded its statutory mandate. As I read it, this was totally the case, though the Sixth Circuit thought otherwise. So lots of the usual word parsing and legalese. I know it well, There is nothing here about the constitutionality of such a mandate. There is nothing about the ability of Congress to legislate the opposite result (which they no doubt can, though presumably the gutless Republicans would not go along. Would they?) There is nothing about the ability of states to create their own laws, though this would surely result in a large split in the states. Also not a word about the lethality and destructiveness of the Vaxx, which should definitely be the death knell for this whole agenda. Ain't going to happen. Also, note that the plaintiffs LOST the companion case (federal workers will need to get vaxxed)--which I did not read. So the Court may believe the Vaxx has some benefits and is basically justified, at least right now. The justices are all vaxxed, I believe. And I don't trust them one bit.

All people should have this right but this does not cover all. This is a small tactical victory on which we can hopefully build. We cannot relax until the power is taken away from the criminals at the top of the power pyramid. All our problems emanate from one source.
