Sounds sort of compulsory to me. When my cardiologist told me I couldn't have a test done without proof of vaccination I told him that settled the matter, I wasn't going. Somehow they relaxed that rule, but I was in Louisiana not in Australia. When I would get met at the door of Dollar General or Walmart with instructions to put on a mask I told them I had CODD and went on in. Piss on a bunch of hysterics over a 99% survivable virus.

If the citizens of our countries would have bowed up against this their trial run would have failed and they would have thought twice about the next phase whatever that may be. I guess we will know soon enough what comes next since the first trial run worked so nicely.


That's the point, how to make something compulsory without actually making it law, in practice but not the letter of the law. Which is why I used the qualifier 'essentially' compulsory in my earlier post.....which of course was not understood, but misrepresented.

Anything more nuanced than black and white being too much for some of the blowhards on this forum to grasp.
