A Conspiracy Or What?
We have heard a lot about “vaccine passports.” Completely unconstitutional, of course. But considering how freely the Washington political hacks ignore the Constitution, it would not come as a surprise to me if the current administration would coerce people into using such an item. They would probably create the necessary intimidation under the guise of a public health emergency. Some media bobblehead recently advanced the idea that racism was a public health emergency. So anything is possible.
The White House press secretary has denied that the idea of vaccine passports. However, there are numerous anecdotal reports that the administration (sorry, I will not refer to it as the Biden administration since it is clear that he is not running anything) is quietly working with major companies on how to implement such a system.
New York State has already announced such a system, Excelsior Pass. This would seem to be the proverbial trial balloon. However, I think in this case, it is more of do it in NY first and then spread it across the country. This is the first, clear step toward subjecting people to controls over when and where they travel, whom they associate with, what places they can go into, etc. NY State is not mandating it. However, the intimidation factor is clear. You will not be allowed to participate in society if you do not get jabbed.
This leads me to the whole issue of the vaccines. I have never accepted the idea that COVID-19 was particularly dangerous. While it was not clear in the beginning just what the mortality rate was, it was clear early on that there were efficacious treatments literally sitting on the shelf.
