I imagine it will be somewhat shortly before the medical experts without a degree will be here saying ventilators are instruments of death and why would we need them? Buckle up — it will be fun.

I never buy into this argument. How much money do we want hospitals to spend on equipment they might need maybe? Ventilators don’t last forever, they have to be maintained, they have to be replaced, new versions happen. The idea that we should have pandemic levels of ventilators for decade after decade without pandemics is just silly.

80% of people put on ventilators with covid died. I couldn’t say for sure but that’s evidence they either didn’t help or caused more harm.

Now the feds are doing it again. Diverting funds to the border to house the hoard coming over the border rather than funding replenishment of the National Strategic Stockpile.

Ah yes before the mask panic there was the ventilator panic. Just like all the money wasted on the hospital ships and the temporary hospital in Chicago. We was played.

There’s also a picture of many crates of new ventilators sitting in a landfill - I’ll try to find it. Couldn’t donate ‘em or wut? I assume it was a region that claimed they had a ventilator shortage and later didn’t know how to get rid of them without attracting attention. Unfortunately for them, someone photographed them. By the time the news crew went out to film, they were presumed mulched under (24 hrs+ delay)

Ventilators killed 9/10 patients that went on them.

Biden just moved billions Congress voted for increasing the PPE stockpile to funding illegals.

There are a few parts of the problem with government. People of the US have been conditioned to the aspect of denial. No one will attack us or threaten us. We are a country of superheroes that can’t be harmed. Generations of citizens have been surprised so often and they just don’t learn about seeing the obvious, or get taught to look.

The government always seems to have the answer to their problem right after it surfaces. Sometimes after many years of it until it is advertised to be the most horrific thing on this little dirt clod, or an actual thing they admit to knowing was coming, but had to wait for it to arrive like tornadoes. They even developed organizations to offset these types of problems in advance: FEMA, the Red Cross, and in the old days, civil defense.

They glorified groups until they became a nuisance: the military, the spies, nuclear power, and the latest, the police. Lawyers will never end up like that as most of our politicians are lawyers. Can’t cut off your own nose.

They have taught (forced) us to buy certain things they wish to provide, travel the way they want, pay for our own property just to keep it in the family every year, and do it by lying and setting prices no one can afford (except them). The stopped taxing items and are now using use taxes: gasoline, tolls, certain vehicles that cause price increases like trucks, higher sales taxes on certain items like candy and soda to make you not use them.

You can “Baaa” all you want, but they are closing the gate on the corral and many inside are not seeing it because they trust the shepherds and are not looking. And the shepherds are saying the grass inside the corral is better than the meadow. Is it?

New limos & office furniture vs. more ventilators. No contest.

Actually, what we had to do was look for treatments so people didn’t get to the point where they needed a ventilator. But of course Fauci et al shot those down immediately.

Remember, “Trump wants people to drink fish tank cleaner”? Many lives could have been saved with available treatments and the ventilators, which turned out to do more harm than good, would never have been used.

There never was a vent shortage. To think that means you believed the liberal media.

The survival rate of anyone with COVID-19 went on a vent is about 5%. That is it, a vent was a death sentence and yet they were needed.

This article is simply too old for me to share with my genius friends who are Ventilator Masters.
