Elon Musk Against Vaccine Mandates By Brian Simpson
Well, at least it is something. Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has come out and said that he opposes the vaccine mandates, even though he has been vaccinated. He is against forcing people to be vaccinated because he is one of the few 1 percenters to hold to the traditional liberal values of freedom and liberty, at least in interviews. It would be nice though if he could donate some of those billions to the freedom cause, but small mercies and all that.
“The wealthiest individual on the planet, Elon Musk, declared this week that he is against vaccine mandates, noting that “I think this is just not something we should do in America.”
Musk made the comments in an interview with TIME, which has awarded the Tesla CEO it’s person of year gong.
Musk was asked if he was vaccinated, to which he replied “Yes. Yeah I am,” and added “I’m very pro-vaccination.”
He clarified, “I believe the science is unequivocal, I treat it to that effect. But by the same token I am against forcing people to be vaccinated.”
“You know I think this is just not something we should do in America. I think we should encourage people to get vaccinated, strongly try and convince them to be vaccinated, but not force them to be vaccinated,” Musk further explained.
“Or for example, force them to get vaccinated or get fired,” Musk added.
Musk previously called for coronavirus restrictions to be eased and America to be re-opened, asserting, “give people their freedom back!”
Musk’s latest comments come on the heels of the first US troops being dismissed for refusing to be vaccinated
