My college, and many others last week, has mandated vaccinations against Covid-19 to attend the Fall Semester. This has been a discussion for a few weeks. And sure, a few colleges “mandated” the vaccine. But when Maryland says they’ll do something, they mean it’s “MANDATORY”.
If you are not vaccinated, you will not be allowed on campus to work or study.
This vaccine is experimental and has no FDA approval. That’s not a big deal, (Incoming Hot Take)
I am fairly certain the Vaccine is Safe and Effective (Personal Opinion). But that’s not the topic right now.
The issue I have is that there was no law passed. No discussion. No committees, hearings, or legislation. Nothing.
What bothered me the most is how this came about at the same time across 30 or more different campus systems. I don’t need to be told that Maryland is ruled by tyrants and I am deep behind enemy lines. I’m well aware who, and what, controls my life in Maryland.
That doesn’t surprise me.
What surprises me is that somewhere, behind closed doors, 30 different campus groups met last week, or the week before(Or sometime in the past) and they all decided that they make the law about what goes into my body and yours.
The American State and Federal legislative branch is as dead as the justice system and education system.
In a few years, these students will graduate and become FBI agents, Cops, Social Workers, Corporate workers, and Soldiers. They will have no idea how legislation and laws are made. Or what even is the point of the 3 branches. At that point, you, the guy or gal who shops for groceries at the same market as them, will be the threat and you will NEED the vaccine.
Our country is splitting in more ways than race, politics, or economic ideology. We are simply two different people. One believes things were fine as they were, and the other believes you can legislate prosperity, equality, and social tranquility. And, now, apparently healthcare.
