Mask rebellion in California school

 Fox News:

"No Mandate Monday" may be coming to a school near you.

Some students and teachers at a California high school on Monday took part in a loosely organized protest called "No Mandate Monday" that is aimed to rebuke Sacramento over its COVID-19 classroom dictates and stand up for a senior removed from campus last week for refusing to wear a mask.

Video emerged from inside Shingle Springs' Ponderosa High School that showed maskless students taking part in the protest who had been placed in a "non-compliance room," according to one parent.

Michael Wilkes, 38, a teacher at the El Dorado County high school, told Fox News he was put on administrative paid leave after spending the day teaching lessons without a mask. He said the district is conducting an investigation and he will likely lose his job after five years.

"I have tremendous peace of mind knowing that I’m living true to my heart," he said.
...

Wilkes, a father of three young children, said he has received an outpour of support from families from within the district who agree that these mandates handed down from Sacramento do more harm than good when it comes to the health and learning environment for children.

The politics of mask mandates is leading to open rebellion among students and some teachers.  Liberal fascism has its limits.  Young people are among the least vulnerable to the virus.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
