“There are no solutions, only trade-offs,” Thomas Sowell famously said. When government takes action, even if that action is desperately needed, we still give something up. In the case of the Wuhan virus — with the endless mask mandates, social restrictions, and shutdowns it has ushered in — that something is our precious freedom.
The American founders recognized this conundrum. According to James Madison in Federalist 37, one of the greatest challenges of the Constitutional Convention was to find the right combination, the right proportions, of government power and individual liberty. The more we ask from our government, the more freedom it takes from us in exchange.

Good article. I agree, who are these public experts telling us what to do?
Worn here only due to those weak in faith.
this is slavery.
this is domination by politicians.
do they collect the virus filled masks?
NO they do not.
do they allow effective treatment of human early
with the PROVEN antivirals which they
did NOT make, themselves.
NO they do not.
did they murder both the CEO and his wife
of the company that makes HCQ.
YES they did.
do they imprison and impugn anyone that that
speaks the Truth?
duh....
I must say a lot of people look much better with the mask. Must put another level on beer goggles.
The faces of sheep.
Everyone watch this. The first few minutes are quoted from a recent letter, and then, starting at four minutes, he gets to the ramifications of all this.
This is the best video I’ve seen on mask wearing.

> did they murder both the CEO and his wife of the company that makes HCQ.
I must have missed something. Reference please.
I was an EMT and I have to keep telling people who say they can breathe fine with a mask “If you can breathe easily, you aren’t wearing it properly”
The Federalists always nails it!
In a quick search...this is from 2017. The man was 75 and ran a successful drug company. They may have made HCQ but don’t see a connection to C-19. There were family lawsuits involved (that he kept winning).
More like the faces of health care workers (they’re all wearing scrubs).
President Trump should put these photos on the screens at his press beatings.
If Jim were ever to MANDATE a video to be watched by ALL FReepers; that is the one. Outstanding!
Sort of related: Where did the FR mask-worshippers of a couple months ago go? There were a couple that were particularly obnoxious. Haven’t seen any posts at all from them lately.
Masking cannot possibly be healthy for people in any way. A surgeon or a nurse putting on a mask for short periods to preven BACTERIAL contamination is a different thing from people sealing themselves up all day and everywhere. They are breathing and rebreathing the same low-oxygen air, letting the staph bacteria that is normally present on skin thrive in the warm, humid environment under the mask and enter even the pores on the skin..not to mention some existing blemish...causing a staph infection, and having the infected air forced up over the mask and into the eyes. There has never been a situation in which any sane medical professional has encouraged the wearing of masks all or even most of one’s waking hours.
People who develop health problems from this need to start suing.
Mask worshipers?
What a retarded thing to say.
What ever happened to respect on FR. This place is as bad as Reddit: people with limited knowledge who enjoy being part of a mob.
You can choose to wear a mask or not. There is no need to shit on a fellow Freeper for following their mind.
Thanks for posting this showing the observable infections.
These maskidiots besides topical face infections, probably have severe and unseen ENT infections and possible CNS infections.
