Truth and Lies About the Corona Virus

The blog, Truth and Lies About the Corona Virus, is a bit long, but it's essential reading, especially for those of your gripped in fear of the disease or on the fence about what to do next.

Read it and share it.  I'm not going to post the text here - too long, but have provided the link and encourage everyone to read it.

Transitioning a Society

This "quarantine" was intended to "flatten the curve".  Mission accomplished.  Now, get out of our way so we can fix the damage done by you, the politician. It was never about making sure no one ever caught the virus.  In fact, for herd immunity to work, the majority of people need to be exposed and build anti-bodies against the contagion.  We are prolonging the inevitable by keeping people locked down and businesses closed.  Once everything opens, there will be a spike in COVID-19 cases, and that is OK. The greatest threat to America and the world right now is not the virus, it is the transfer of power from the people to the politicians.  It's transferring because we are all obeying orders which are schizophrenic (release murders and put paddle boarders in jail) and downright illegal (where does the Constitution list who is "essential" and who is not?). Historically and Biblically, the sick were quarantined while the healthy went about the busin

Happy Sunday, everyone! It's been awhile since I've posted.  I've been waiting to see how the response to the trickling end of the corona virus would be.

Generally speaking, I'm not for a centralized power structure, but when the response was nation wide, we need someone to at least vet the plans and organize things for continuity and to leverage interstate commerce to ma

George Orwell - a Last Warning

Here is a two minute video on YouTube  stemming from an interview (or at least a dramatization of an interview) with George Orwell, author of Animal Farm and 1984 . The words are well known, but, as the years pass, they become ever more poignant and more on point. A bit of thought, not a lot, but a bit, is required to think about how to heed such words.  From there will stem a tree of ideas, branches going every which way, but buds green with freedom and not red with the blood of Communism/Fascism/Totalitarianism. Yes, blood may be inevitable, it so often has been in the human struggle throughout history, but if it so, is this not why we teach (taught?) values clarification and the idea of triage to our middle-schoolers?  I suppose I live in the past, but, if blood is to be spilt better theirs than ours, better mine than yours, and, yet, better none at all if freedom can be secured without it. It's not like we haven't been warned...
