Fine the companies who are engaged in such disgusting unconstitutional behavior. At least require welfare recipients and prisoners who’s sole existence is funded by the law biding taxpayers to take the jab or lose their free money! After all “fair and equitable” is all that matters right? Take those monies and pay the hardworking Americans who were just forced out of their jobs by an illegitimate Govt and corrupt corporations. While we are at it, IF we have to pay for your breeding? You must first get your tubes tied. Find the Father and neuter him as well. If they force a healthy person to shoot poison in themselves then surely we can require the above?
