These large stores can absolutely require these “passports “ and employers can terminate employees that don’t get the vaccine. But just remember what Mr Lavar Burton said, “We’re living in a culture of consequences”. So to the corporate overlords I say this: If you deem it necessary to remove these people from polite society and force them into hardships like unemployment, homelessness etc… then you may want to consider relocation outside of the continental United States, lest one of the great unwashed masses decide to hold you accountable

No, it will create a 2-Class citizen system just like in Germany, WW2.
Whoever supports this disgusting idea are enabling totalitarianism. It must be stopped, same for those who brought that forth.

On the plus side, if you just don't spend any money at the places that would require this, you end up with a lot of extra $$ to invest in crypto.

Here's how it will work: You will push this on us. We will resist. You'll need to find a new planet to live on for pushing this on us

This is just wrong. I am unable to take vaccines due to severe allergies. So how is my federally protected medical information any of your business to prove either way?
