The governors of Texas and California, the nation’s two most populous states, recently reimposed coronavirus lockdowns despite falling death rates and health-care capacity far beyond hospitalization rates. Numerous other governors have delayed reopenings or reversed them in similar situations.
Lockdowns are not necessary to prevent coronavirus deaths, since the current capacity for treating cases is far above what is needed and people are going to get this disease until there’s a cure. Further, lockdowns accelerate systemic weaknesses such as our national debt, poor education, large numbers of working-age men who do not work, failure to pay for decades of overspending at both the national and state levels, tendency to bail out corrupt institutions such as schools, big business, and hospitals, and bloated health care system.
The Chinese Communist Party knows of all this. That is why it has expertly manipulated American corporate media’s anti-American biases to undermine their biggest competitor for control of the world.
Lockdowns of Western nations, and chiefly of the United States, are China’s only hope for achieving this long-term plan in its coronavirus-weakened state. Thus, continuing to play into this mass-murdering regime’s hands through cuckolded American leadership will have far more deadly consequences than coronavirus. This is why the lockdowns need to end now, and never come back again.
A July 13 New York Times article says the re-shutdowns are killing the willpower of small business owners to keep their doors open, even after Congress threw $660 billion in deficit spending at them.
“We did everything we were supposed to do,” Texas karaoke club owner Mick Larkin told the Times. “When [Gov. Rick Abbott] shut us down again, and after I put out all that money to meet their rules, I just said, ‘I can’t keep doing this.’”
Estimates say between 66,000 and 110,000 small businesses may already have closed for good during the coronavirus panic.
“Small businesses account for 44 percent of all U.S. economic activity, according to the S.B.A., and closures on such an immense scale could devastate the country’s economic growth,” the Times observes. “…Many small businesses are also finding it onerous keep up with constantly changing local guidelines, while others are deciding that no matter what their local officials say, it just is not safe to keep going.”
There is a hard limit to how much fake economic activity current and future taxpayers can float. We had already reached it before coronavirus hit. A bailout economy will crash irrevocably at some point. No matter how much Congress thinks they can suspend the laws of nature, never-ending economic inflation through accelerating claims on future American earners’ incomes is utterly unsustainable.
Americans cannot afford a Potemkin economy. The first step toward getting to a real economy is to end lockdowns and never impose them again.
Keeping schools shut down, or only partially opening them, also suffocates our economy by making it difficult for two-income families and single parents to support themselves. It is simply not possible to work full-time and teach children full-time, which is what online schooling requires of working parents.
School shutdowns also hobble American society long-term, as they and online schooling both significantly reduce how much children learn, especially in math. Math competence strongly predicts a nation’s economic future, to the point that one estimate finds if U.S. kids just learned as much math as Canadian kids do, our nation would increase its gross domestic product by $77 trillion over the next 80 years.
It’s therefore quite reasonable to assume that setting kids back in math by a year or two, as continued coronavirus schooling will do (it’s already set them back in math almost a year), will short our economy tens of trillions of dollars — right at the time trillions in unfunded entitlements for Baby Boomers will come due. We simply can’t afford that, and China knows it.
Besides harming our country, shutdowns harm children. There is next to zero risk to children’s health of going back to school, as evidence from myriad first-world countries show. There is a massive risk to kids’ futures of depriving them of a good education. One estimate found keeping U.S. kids’ math knowledge to pre-pandemic levels instead of raising it to Canada’s would deprive them of an estimated 20 percent in additional income for every year of their lives that they work.
Doing what China wants in continued lockdowns will not just hamstring American kids financially, it will bequeath them a far more dangerous world in which an aggressive, mass-murdering regime that deliberately sent a deadly virus abroad grows in power as their nation’s ability to deflect that power decays. In 20 years, America’s kids will not be impressed that we spared grownups some unsubstantiated unease in return for condemning the next generation to a much higher likelihood of poverty, a bankrupted social safety net, and a homeland at the mercy of a bloodthirsty global power.
In urging lockdowns, therefore, U.S. media has amplified and helped implement Communist goals. The Chinese Communist Party endorsed, promulgated, and lobbied for strict lockdowns with the goal of kneecapping foreign competitors, including the United States. As Michael P. Senger pointed out on Twitter based on a June New York Times article, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) “launched a massive social media campaign in Italy to advertise its coronavirus lockdown measures in early March.”
1/5 This @nytimes article by @paulmozur is a smoking gun on the genesis of the coronavirus lockdowns.

3/5 But CCP's campaign wasn't limited to Italy. The article states that this Tweet advertising China's lockdown policy to the world is fake. It has 142,000 likes.
Tweets like this prove CCP was actively selling the world on Wuhan-style lockdowns in early March. pic.twitter.com/eVHELKCCBj

Democrats spent three years spinning a presidential impeachment out of a few Facebook memes from Russian trolls and bots in 2016. This NYT article and a long ProPublica report provide evidence that the CCP has been using a far bigger propaganda campaign to destroy the United States through economic suicide and destruction of social cohesion. And it’s working.
It is no exaggeration to say that the world’s future depends on the United States acting strategically to counter Chinese propaganda and aims rather than strangling ourselves on lies. Our economy and military sustain the world. China is the number one beneficiary if we choke, and it has been wanting to challenge the United States for dominant global power for decades. They needed another generation or two to be able to get there.
The CCP strategy for achieving that has been promising its citizens political competence and economic advancement in exchange for severe repression that allows for directing the nation’s entire economy into soft and hard global power. Coronavirus strikes at the heart of both these strategies. That’s the CCP’s main leverage over the Chinese (besides terrorizing people). So the only way Xi Jinping staves off losing his head over mismanaging this outbreak is by bringing the world down with him.
The CCP is fighting for its life and its 100-year plan to get us to stay locked down. Keeping freedom alive for the world requires that they don’t win. Key to fighting back is following Sweden and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem’s successful coronavirus management strategies: End government lockdowns, and allow American citizens to act on their own judgments about coronavirus risks.
If it’s good enough for the CHICOMS, it’s good enough for the Democrats and Fake News!
Well, we left Seattle in 2011 for what is now 32 acres in rural KY. We’ve told all the kids that, if necessary, we can have quite a compound up here. We have two streams and awesome weather for growing your own food and there is tons of wildlife that is mighty tasty.
I don’t expect it to really come to that but, worst case scenario...
At one time, doctors were offended at the idea hand washing. Thanks, freedum no-maskers.
and the Dems are not working with the Chinese Communist Party , ya right
So...keep the government schools shut down permanently? :)
Got 60 acres in Florida in the family. Can’t say it’s not hot, can’t say it’ll grow much other than tasties for the wildlife.
any thinking person knows that CDC and NIH are anti-american.
this also questions trump's intelligence. he did not learn anything from deep-state-muller-russia-gate coup
he has already paid traitors trillions of dollars from us treasury.
now moving to give citizenship to DACA goons.
import more democrat voters via so-called-merit-based-immigration.
trump is really trying hard to be 1 term-er lately

“Thanks, freedum no-maskers.“
You do realize, what is killing our nation right now, is all these “protective” measures right?
You also realize that the “cases” are up but deaths are down right? And what happens to a fraction when the denominator increases but the numerator does not? Come on say it with me.......
Lastly, you do realize, had we done nothing more than possibly quarantining old peoples homes, that this would be over already right? The measures we are taking only help to prolong the virus. Flattening the curve increases its duration.
The virus is not the problem. 99% of the people who get it, don’t die from it. 99% of the people who do die from it, had metabolic syndrome comorbidities — associated with the diabetic process — including those who seemed to have no “diagnosed” underlying medical problems — as many “prediabetics” do. They’re not considered diabetic unless they have high levels of sugar in their blood — but they can have high levels of sugar in all their other tissues — causing their organs to rot. That’s why many diabetics eventually have to have their toes and feet amputated, and other organs malfunction — including the liver, kidneys, brain and heart.
That condition is caused by the advice given 50 years ago to avoid protein and fats, and instead to favor carbohydrates which break down into sugar — and then is stored in the body — until there is a demand for it, or the body is not being triggered to store energy in this way. That is what the body has evolved to do — store energy for the time when food may not be accessible, but instead of the Malthus hypothesis becoming true, food became abundant — particularly plant-based food, which the human bodies are not so well designed to metabolize.
Infectious disease was basically eradicated in the 20th century with the 1918 flu, polio, tuberculosis — and replaced in the 21st century largely by these metabolic disorders — and that’s what people are dying from — with any additional “load” pushing them over. As many scientists have noted, we live in a world of germs, bacteria, fungi — and not that they live in our world. So the suggestion that we have to completely eradicate them before we can continue on with life — is really idiotic, even if promoted by Fauci, Gates, WHO, CDC, Surgeon General — who largely got us into this mess with their advice to make everyone a diabetic — with their advice to eat a high carbohydrate, low-cholesterol diet — which a few pioneering researchers realized is the cause of most of modern day diseases. That is lifestyle, diet, and exercise — which Fauci, Gates, WHO, CDC, and the Surgeon General is totally missing in action from. And the media writers, are hoping to win a Pulitzer prize reporting on the end of the world — and can no longer “discriminate” significant differences and facts from political correctness of repeating what they are told to.
That is where we are — because we are living in a politically-correct, non-discriminating society — that can no longer discern relevant discriminations — and so all must be treated randomly, as though there is no difference. But it does make a difference — if one is metabolically compromised in this way. It is not not just fat-shaming, and disease-shaming, and all that other politically-correct nonsense — that says we have to let the Faucis, Gates, WHO, CDC, Surgeon General do all our thinking for us — as though they knew better, when in all practicality, they know less — and are still fighting the last war. History only repeats itself because people don’t create a better future — but only think they can rewrite history with themselves as the heroes. That won’t make a difference.
How does one find good land? I’ve seen a ton on Realtor type sites but they often look alike. Arkansas appeals to me.
Up until recently I hadn’t known a single person affected by the virus. Then last week my brother, who is a walking advertisement for risk from the disease, tested positive just prior to going into the hospital for a major surgery. The surgery was cancelled and the only symptom my brother got from the virus was a stuffy nose and a little cough.
The Chinese want America ruined...and so do the Dims.
It’s the only way China can dominate us, and it’s the only way Democrats can win in November.

Keep a close eye on him AND his treatment(s) for the CCP-19. There are tons of videos(Elmhurst in NY), stories, cases of folks being basically destroyed by medical mis-practice.
Without question this virus hoax is nothing liberals wanting to hurt America and help China.
