    Federal contracts cover a lot of ground, cars, furniture, equipment clothes, it's a long list. Joe is going to retire a lot of experience at these places.
    And that's how Biden will claim to create more jobs than Trump. In his feeble mind, if Biden can make someone quit or retire, and someone else is then hired, Biden has created a job. We all know different, but his followers will claim job creation.

    It is just not practical to boycott gun , ammo, associated products. We need that stuff. These are companies that supply 2A components not political machines. It is not reaso to expect them to act as a political machine.

    Obviously you can do as you please, but know in the long run a successful boycott would do us more harm than good. It is a great strategy to do business with those that are aligned with our values.

    Amen to this. Those that pick at the small things in the foundation weaken the overall structure. Let them run their business and provide us the goods. Or, like many, you can buy foreign crap.

    Agree To me it seems this goes in cycles. In the early 1990s everyone was mad at Bill Ruger and beat the boycot drum. S&W in the late 90's over tye lock (which Safty Hammer owned S&W and locks were probably coming with or without Clinton)

    Then recently everyone was mad at Springfield Armory and that went away (to me it only seemed like Springfield Armory was trying to not have the same situation S&W recently found themselve in)

    Some that throw the term snowflake around and say they are against cancel culture seem to be the first to get bent out of shape and call for boycotts

    Maybe those folks should start a major gun and ammo manufacturing buisness and try to balance everything they have to.

    The threat is very real companies have their marching orders and the unvaccinated are to be cleared out by 12/8/21. .

    This just hit my HR mailbox today.

    The rule implementing President Joe Biden's order for employers with at least 100 employees to mandate COVID-19 vaccination or weekly testing is likely to be released soon, prompting many employers to begin preparations. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration sent its drafted rule to the White House for review two weeks ago, and the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs has held meetings with multiple groups representing employers, businesses and individuals to hear their feedback.

    Merry F'n Christmas. Thanks Brandon!

    In today's market, every single round Hornady took away from the feds would instantly be snapped up by consumers, probably at a lot more than the government is paying.

    If they had any integrity at all, they'd tell the feds to cram their contracts up their asses and they wouldn't be getting a single round of Hornady ammo until the mandates were dead and buried.
    ^ THIS! ^

    I want to say a lot more, but I probably shouldn’t.

    Once my current supply of Hornady bullets is used up I'm probably done with Hornady and NOT BECAUSE of any Democratic Socialist Party vaccine mandates rather the price of their bullets. When it costs over a buck just in bullets alone to fire 4 rounds of 357 Magnum 158 XTPs that's too much for me. Thats at Midway's current price of $28 per 100 158XTPS.

    Hiring will probably go up at OSHA and the first round of inspections will be confusing. It was like this when RCRA/CERCLA got started. Most of the field people were fresh out of school and totally confused about how industrial chemicals were handled.

    There is no OSHA rule yet with which to comply. (Which is also one reason why there are no lawsuits yet.) Would we expect such a rule to be enforceable day 1? Seems like business would need time to comply, file suit, break into units smaller than 100 employees, or whatever.

    Until there's an OSHA rule, it's all coercion. At this point it's all threats and coercion.
