You don’t quarantine well people. Makes them even more vulnerable when things do open up.
And yet, someone is propping up the stock markets. They can NOT be up because of impending economic recovery with all of this going on. It’s impossible.
The American Gulag was a huge social experiment, into what would be the effects of shutting down the engines of capitalism. We have had a taste of what life would be like should the “global-warming” and pro-socialist forces gain the levers of power in this country (or many other countries around the world, for that matter).
Massive amount of vastly under-utilized resources, both human and natural, unable to be delivered to those most in need, and a general aimlessness of the entire population, with a most desultory attitude to what was once widely known and believed, but now just broken dreams.
The COVID-19 virus was most definitely NOT the cause, but it acted as a catalyst for this experiment to go forward.
Can these effects be reversed? Can there be some sort of synthesis that absorbs all the ills resulting from this catastrophic and epic failure, and convert those effects into a positive lesson for all mankind going forward? For these are the kind of events that forged many of the lessons inscribed in the text of both the Old and New Testaments, and tie our own lives to those of our ancestors.
Up to us to find the resolution.
Excellent article, especially the supporting links. Thanks for posting.
