...THIS WEBSITE had so many gullible Branch Covidian morons who couldn’t wait to fall all over themselves and surrender their civil rights in abject fear of an outbreak that turned out to be no worse than a serious strain of the flu.

A most excellent point which must not be forgotten.

I taught two of my kids to read using Blumenfeld’s book and met Mr. Gatto at a homeschooling conference. Sent him a bit of money in the end when his health was failing and he was financially strapped.

And Amazon, peloton, box box stores and hedge fund managers profiteered while the workers were left to deal with the inflation. Small businesses were shut down because they didn’t have enough political clout or make sizable enough donations.

And now, when the front line workers-who were lauded as “heroes” by the incompetent media, complain about their wages not keeping up with inflation and demanding higher pay are called greedy by the very elites who profiteered from their labor. Screw the elites. Tax them at 90% then put them in front of a tribunal for profiteering.

I will never forget the masks.

Those useless paper masks that you could not walk into a store or any other public place without.

The ultimate absurdity was being made to wear them in restaurants, only once you were seated at your table were you allowed to remove them. As if the big, bad, COVID knew to steer clear of the dining table.

I have zero respect for people who continue to wear them today. But at least those people have self-identified as being stupid and gullible. They warn the rest of us to avoid them and to recognize that they are idiots.

“This was until the West’s leaders (MCA Mobbed-Up Ronald Reagan, pro-abortion Margaret Thatcher, West Germany’s Helmut Schmidt and Francois Mitterrand), met at the G-7 Economic Summit in Ottawa in 1981 to decide that the powerhouse of American manufacturing had to be dismantled and shipped off to China.”

Quit reading at that point. Inference is not a substitute for facts, and inference is all of what the sources have done.

2. As to: “There was once a Living Wage, so that a family’s father could support the whole family with one job, and the family’s mother could stay home to do the most important “job”, nurturing the children. “

It is a myth that all working men had jobs that provided a “Living Wage” and without an extra job or the wife doing paid work, they could “support the whole family”. They did, support their family, as best they could, but for some they remained in poverty.
