Alternately, I don’t need random posts to know who owns what. Blackrock and Vanguard manage mutual and index funds that own stock in virtually everything publicly traded. That’s what index funds do. Own everything.
That has nothing to do with private equity.
In none of these cases is HIPAA germane. HIPAA governs information access protocols and disclosure. It doesn’t entitle you to refuse to answer questions and remain on private property. Your option, if you don’t want to wear a mask, is to leave.
You are insisting that there exists a right which is nowhere in the statute.
No, that’s not true. HIPAA prohibits unauthorized disclosure. It does not stop a private entity from declining to employ you or admit you to their premises if you do not wear a mask.
You are welcome to try out your crackpot legal theory in the real world. Go, test it, and watch it fail. Ping local counsel and ask them to represent you. Observe their reactions.
HIPAA does not prohibit anyone from asking you to wear a mask. I have no idea what gave you the idea it did.
I’m neither bitter nor a troll; I merely find it remarkable how many tenuous our outright nonsensical legal claims wind up being endorsed here.
You have to tell them it is a violation of your HIPAA rights for them to ask you to wear a mask
That is nonsense. HIPAA has nothing to do with this.
The “private property” comment is insane because every place is private property unless it’s government.
And?
I’m commenting that there is nothing in 14a jurisprudence, going back to the ratification of the 14th, that would establish anything approaching a right to not be fired for wearing masks.
An issue with this forum is that, especially on legal matters, it’s often full of shit. Just because the deep state exists and is powerful doesn’t mean that every intuition one has about how things “should” be is actually what the law is.
Who and or what is subject to the U.S. Constitution?
The United States, and, by incorporation, the states. It’s a standard constitution in that respect.
Who enacted/ordained the U.S. Constitution
The 1787 Constitutional Convention and thirteen extant states for the original document, etc. for the amendments.
Who and or what is subject to the U.S. Statues, Codes, And Regulations?
Anything or anyone under the jurisdiction of the United States.
The US Code is absolutely law; that’s the body of statute law.
"The Law" is what ever The People say it is mother fucker. permalink context
Yawn. The law is the Constitution, plus the common law, plus what the people have enacted into statute via their representatives.
The Declaration of Independence is not law, and the Equal Protection Clause is irrelevant in this context. You can show your big smile, and your employer will grin back as they fire you. You can then grin away while the courts ignore you.
An obvious simple word that is the only one in the message with a ‘q’ as well
