Re: "Now they are your best friends? sigh..."
what havent _I_ understood? what haven't YOU understood??!!!
a) the purpose of shutdowns was to prepare hospitals so they wouldn't be overwhelmed. This has been done, MORE than sufficiently [in some places they are LAYING OFF hospital workers, not enough demand]
b) it's a VIRUS, and there's only ONE way to stop a virus: HERD IMMUNITY
c) shutting down for MORE THAN 3 WEEKS ALREADY is MORE THAN JUST EXCESSIVE.
The article gets it right when it talks about people who LOVE THEIR POWER too much that they (essentially) MUST WIELD IT!
And that's the point. We are SUPPOSED to be living in FREE societies, and FREE PEOPLE TAKE RISKS because, after all, we have NOT sacrificed OUR freedom for an ILLUSION of "Safety and Security" - until NOW...
