World wide stupidity.
Yes,
These things pick up inertia and there is no stopping them.
Why?
When the interests of business and government converge, thing can get stupid.
Bureaucrats and politicians wanting to each outdo the other, will take it to extremes, see Cuomo as an example, or Biden with his vaccine mandate. It becomes a frenzy of stupidity and there is no one out there pulling the breaks.
People today have given up on thinking. Even here in the Free Republic.
During all this Covid lunacy, I had someone stating they were a physician tell me I was reckless and irresponsible for going to Destin to the beach with the wife. I asked him if it was the salt water, UV light, sand (horrible surface for the virus), high temperatures, fresh un recirculated air, or fact that people naturally spread out on the beach which I need to worry about?
He never gave a logical argument or explained his position.
It was just you’re reckless and irresponsible for doing that - do as you’re told.
There is no rational/logical argument to be had, not even with so called experts.
