Understanding the limited reach of the Supreme Court decisions on mandates
By Molly Slag

The two recent United States Supreme Court decisions — NFIB v. OSHA, No. 21A244, and Biden v. Missouri, No. 21A240 — can be confusing to those who don't understand exactly what the court decided.  The first stopped OSHA from issuing a regulation mandating vaccinations or expensive weekly tests for employees in private companies with 100 employees or more.  The second, sadly, did not stop Biden's mandate that, in the midst of a shortage of health care workers, 10 million health care workers will be fired if they refuse a vaccine that does nothing to prevent contagion.  Neither decision limited government power in the way people hope.

If you'd like to read the decisions yourself, NFIB v. OSHA can be viewed here and Biden v. Missouri can be viewed here.

Most people that the following three legal issues were presented to the court in these two cases:

1. Whether the federal government has the authority to mandate vaccinations.

2. Whether Congress has the power to delegate to federal agencies the authority to mandate vaccinations.

3. Whether Congress did in fact delegate to the two federal agencies in question the authority to mandate vaccinations.

It's becoming increasingly clear that someone besides Kurt Goedel has noticed that it is possible within the strictures of the Constitution to establish a tyranny in these United States.

(That Goedel found one is something we know from a charming story about his citizenship examination at which Einstein had to stop Goedel from answering in the affirmative, and with detailed explanation, a question posed by the judge as to whether a tyranny could be established under the Constitution.)
