Americans oppose the Biden mandates
...
A new Zogby poll is going to make their (Democrats') chances look even worse. It shows that likely voters have turned overwhelmingly against government mandates: 53 percent prefer personal choice over 37 percent who prefer government mandates.
For Democrats, one-third (33%) favor personal choice, as do a super-majority (72%) of Republicans and 55% of Independents. Also, 55% of those with college degrees and most age cohorts (except 65+) believe in personal choice of government mandates.
The poll also asked if it was “right or wrong to disobey mandates from the President.”
A look at party identification reveals more Independent voters favor disobeying Presidential mandates – 42% to 31%. For Republicans, it’s 49% – 26%, and for Democrats, 26% say it’s ok to disobey, with 49% believing it’s wrong.
It should frankly be more. But it shows how Republicans, Independents, and even a large percentage of Democrats don’t think the government has a right to tell you what to do.

I think the mandates were a mistake and now it is also clear they were a political problem for Biden and the Democrats. Biden seem to think that the mandates would help him defeat the virus. They didn't and they turned out to be a political liability.
