“I think as a matter of policy, the right policy here is to let private employers decide whether they're going to require vaccination or not. I think private organizations have the right to do that. If, you know, if a restaurateur wants to say that we are going to be an all-vaxxed restaurant, you want to, you know, and they're only going to take clientele who are vaxxed, that should be their right to do it. If another restaurant says we don't care, people can go to that restaurant if they want. You know, I think that the free market can sort of sort this out. I don't know that we need the government imposing it.”
