why the vast business community isnt fighting against these mandates?

2/3 of the country supports them (even in swing states)...businesses (who bear the burden of implementing/maintaining them) support them...but the press has to validate the consistently nihilistic 1/3 of the country and treat the issue like an evenly divided toss up to justify the horserace coverage.

its funny how repubs positioned themselves as champions of business and free enterprise when it came to the lockdowns...but now theyre all in on preventing businesses from instituting the safety measures that *they* want to institute in the best interest of their business.

also...why are dems not hammering *this* point home? republican governors...who drone on about 'dictatorship/fascism' on the left...are trampling over business agency/independence (especially small business) just to appeal to their ideological fringe base.
