Libertarian Think Tank Comes Out in Support of Vaccine Passports From ‘Private Sector’

No they don't. And I never said they did, nor did that Cato article.

But they do have a right to refuse to do business with you if you don't inject that into your body, or for any other reason of their choice. And they have a right to do that without taking on any financial liability for any adverse effects of the injection. Those who don't consent to those terms could just refuse to do business with those who insist on them. The market would do all the work necessary of punishing that policy without any help from the government.

LOL...

Saint Peter don't ya call me cuz I can't go...

I owe my soul to the Company Store.


Not surprised to see Stato pushing this...I'm pretty sure the author mentioned in the OP is also supportive of government mandated injections.

Big Business can and will tyrannize you just as fast as Big Government.

With Liberty Comes Responsibility.

A company can demand-request all they want. I ain't stickin' anything into my body, certainly not for an 8 hour job.

If the people understood and stood on principle, the true Free Market would sort it out. But, folks will line up without any consideration at all.

This is the conundrum that we are in, and governments and businesses will take complete advantage of it - and you.

As usual, you have the right read on the situation.

Ideologues are painfully ignorant of history and too busy myopically defending the principle of liberty against government alone. Then again, it is impossible to see the big picture when you think government is a uniquely evil existence rather than just one form of a concentration of hierarchical power among the species. Anything that has amassed a significant degree of power is capable of tyranny, and it can occur absent any government.
 
Some points we should all be able to agree on:

1. The government should not issue vaccine passports, or fund them, or pass laws that require them for any purpose at all, including entry into the US from abroad.
2. The government should not ban private vaccine passports.
3. There probably is a market demand for private vaccine passports that some private entities would require on their property, which is their right. If these existed, they might also be accepted by foreign governments for entry into their countries, even if our state and federal governments didn't require them.

I can't say how much such a thing would actually take off. If government got out of the way and let the market work, we would find that out. Obviously a lot of people would refuse to get them. But there shouldn't be anything objectionable about allowing those who want them to get them.

It's you who's missing the point.

They shouldn't be required for anything at all by the government, as I explicitly said in the very words you quoted. But private entities could reserve the right to require them for uses on their own properties. And again, the word "private" is right there explicitly in the words you quoted.

My point is that if private entities want to do that, it should be left up to them. And the market will either reward or punish them for it. But the government should stay out of it.

The world should be x,y and z...

It isn't. Unicorns and castles in the sky.

The single biggest danger to liberty today is the public/private partnership. It is mentioned everyday by so many, including the Biden Administration. It's a huge joke. If every aspect of government is outsourced to "private" companies, then there is no line at all between them, and the Constitution no longer applies at all.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Brian4Liberty again.

Good point. And would a government ban of private vaccine passports make that single biggest danger worse? Or better?
 
When I think of things like leftarians , leftists , vaccine passports and other nasty things I'm just comforted by my .30 Cal stash and flame thrower .

not many truly “private” companies around, certainly not any corporations.
 
Let’s call it what it is. “Vaccine passport” sounds innocuous, but it is really about banning people who have not had a vaccine. That is it’s purpose, to exclude people.

like a "prohibited Person"..

But are Genetically Modified Humans natural persons or are they Intellectual Property?

No, they do not.
They do not have a right to know if you have taken the frankenshot and they have no right to collude with government to impose the Mark of the Beast.

Even if there was no government involvement (and there is and has to be for the system to work) it would be an unconscionable contract.
 
The bottom line issue here is not really private business vs. government.

Some people want to force vaccinations, some people don’t. Private vaccine passports is a way to force vaccines through the not-so-free market.

Many “libertarians” have argued in the past for forced vaccinations, even by government. Walter Block once made a case for forced vaccinations. Alan Dershowitz, a supposed civil libertarian, has called for forced vaccinations.

Whether it’s big government, Cato or Reason, it’s extremely popular these days to do the government’s dirty work via “private companies”. The great public-private totalitarian kleptocracy.

Neo-Feudalism.
The "Nobility" claimed to own their fifes as personal property and have a right to tyrannize their subjects, many libertarians would support them and advocate supposedly new and innovative forms of government that will bring back those "good" old days.

Government is the people who rule you, it doesn't make any difference what they call themselves, corporations have no more right to tyrannize than a republic, a democracy, or a king.
