Tucker was criticizing/lambasting Kavanaugh tonight for his insane ruling agreeing with Roberts and the other lib justices upholding the health care workers vaccine mandates.

Next, squishy Kavanaugh goes with Roberts in a 5-4 decision to keep abortion legal up to 16 weeks, down only slightly from 24. Hope and pray I’m wrong.

"Tucker was criticizing/lambasting Kavanaugh tonight for his insane ruling agreeing with Roberts and the other lib justices upholding the health care workers vaccine mandates."

I'm not a Kavanaugh fan, and was not enthusiastic about his nomination. If you look back through my posting history in recent years, you'll find where I opined that there may be some basis in fact for some of the allegations levelled against him during his hearings. That said, I'm not sure this decision was incorrect.

If you take the king's shilling, you do the king's bidding. When a health care facility chooses to accept medicare/medicaid funds, they essentially agree to the terms and conditions that go with that money. The simple solution is for healthcare facilities to opt out of accepting medicare and medicaid.

The problem is not so much with this ruling as it is with two broader underlying issues:

1. Government involvement in healthcare/single payer. When we allow healthcare decisions to be made by those backed with the force of law, we have set ourselves up for failure. Basically all life decisions can be tied to personal health and when government worms its way into subsidizing health care, it can essentially force those decisions on to individuals participating in that healthcare (be they patient or provider).

2. Fascistic ties between private entities and government. As the gray area between the private and public sectors grows and becomes increasingly muddled expect to see more of this sort of thing. Private grocery stores that accept EBT will be given harsher rules. Private schools and universities that accept public funding will be placed under increasingly rigid guidelines. In the broader framework of the moral degradation of our society, executives and administrators faced with the dilemma of profit vs. principle will invariably choose the former at the expense of the latter.
