Mask mandates for children: Good Luck

MANDATES EASY, ENFORCEMENT NOT SO MUCH

WILL BE MORE VIRTUE SIGNALLING THAN EFFECTIVE PRACTICE

As schools reopen we see the mask wars heat up. While masks may be slightly effective at slowing the spread of the virus, it opens up a new area of conflict. 

While it is not a universal mandates for schools, many schools have not mandated masks, it will have many unintended consequences. Who will enforce these mandates on these kids? Will some parents be outraged if they see some kids without masks? Does anyone really believe small children will wear a mask in an appropriate manner all day? Will they need mask regulations as to what is ok and what is not? Will the school be required to furnish masks? Will kids be tempted to trade masks because of their style or message? Will messages be allowed on masks?  The teachers will be under close scrutiny for accusations of hypocrisy if they are seen not wearing a mask. What will the penalties be for not wearing a mask? Suspension? Expulsion? Fines on parents? I could go on with possibilities endlessly.

In my travels, I rarely see a mask being worn anywhere, except for employees of certain business's who require it for their employee's. I don't know if I could wear a mask all day. Those that want these mandates should try doing so for a whole day.  Most of the population, at least for now, seem to be over the extreme fear of the virus.  Covid is not going to go away, it will be with us forever. We will eventually come to that conclusion, just like dealing with the flu or other communicable diseases. Eventually there should be a certain immunity that will moderate the effects on the population. 

The best policy should be to encourage masks, but leave it up to individual choice. This would let everyone focus on other things rather than a continual divisive conflict, one after another. It seems many want continual conflict and division, I personally am tired of it all.

Israeli study suggests natural immunity better than vaccine.

 

 STUDY SUGGESTS NATURAL IMMUNITY STRONGER AND LONGER LASTING

STUDY ALSO WARNS INTENTIONAL INFECTION A DANGEROUS IDEA

A study just concluded by Israeli researchers has concluded that natural immunity in those previously infected with covid-19 had a stronger and longer lasting protection against the virus than the Pfizer 2 shot recipients. 

Breakthrough infections for vaccine recipients were 13 times greater than those with natural immunity. They did stress that the breakthrough infections were not as serious as those who had not been vaccinated.

They also concluded that 1 dose of the vaccine for those who had previously had the disease did increase their immune response.

This is the first study of natural immunity of Covid-19 survivors and vaccine recipients. It is likely much more research is in the future.

It has been suggested that natural immunity protects the body with not only antibodies but also T Cells and B Cells.

They also warn that any attempts at intentional infection would be foolish and dangerous.

It is also pointed out that those vaccinated who had breakthrough infections never resulted in serious illness or death.

It could be that a future vaccine based on the old fashioned dead or weakened virus method will be possible in the future.

Below is a link to the article and the original study can provide more details.

Biden administration: Architects of chaos.

CHAOS AT THE BORDER, CHAOS IN THE CITIES, NOW CHAOS OVERSEES 

IS IT JUST INCOMPETENCE OR ANOTHER ROUTE TO MORE POWER?

Every policy of this administration results in more chaos and division. This president claimed he was a unifier, but there has been no policy to encourage unity, just division and chaos. 

His first acts and actually even before his inauguration was to encourage unlimited illegal immigration across the southern border. This is having a negative effect both on the border states, then all across the country. From a heavy burden on social services to an increase in untested, unvaccinated individuals entering the country. Is this incompetence or another route to sow chaos and increase federal government power.

We have seen this president, his vice president and most in his administration encourage the racist philosophy of critical race theory, an idea that is sowing division and chaos in our schools, communities, in business and the military. This for sure is not just incompetence but another plan to sow division in their quest for ultimate power.

Then we see their proposed policies on the police and criminal justice that encourages lawlessness and chaos in our cities and will likely expand to the whole country. We see out best and most experienced law enforcement officers retiring and resigning in numbers never seen in our history. Who will replace these people, will it be advocates of critical race theory and other biased unqualified people? Will it require more federal government power as the solution?

We see the approach to covid as an expansion of government power, sowing fear and encouraging more dependence on the federal government, punishing small business, incorporating big business to force compliance, sowing hate and division against anyone who has concerns about their need to have a government intrusion in their body. Can people's concerns be based on other issues than politics? More government power, more division, more chaos.

Then we see the legislative agenda of increasing a welfare state beyond probably any country ever. Crippling taxes on the productive and free everything to his supporters. If this agenda is ever passed it will result in an implosion in the economy, more chaos and a need for more government power.

Now we see chaos in Afghanistan, a country besieged with violence for decades, giving up the center of our power and flexibility, Bagram air base, in the middle of the night, without consulting with our allies or even the Afghan government. Then putting our troops in a dangerous and indefensible position at a one runway, surrounded airport in Kabul. Scrapping and ignoring the previous administration plan of step by step, organized withdrawal with conditions on the Taliban. Leaving the Taliban and other radicals a cache of weapons to expand their activities. Incompetence or will the fear of terrorist action now be another excuse for the expansion of government power at home.

Should we believe these people are just incompetent, that they are being forced into these positions by the actions of the former administration, or are we ready to face the reality that their intentional actions want to bring down the country in an effort to acquire permanent totalitarian power.

Did Biden take it for granted that media would cover for him?

 MAYBE MEDIA HAS ALLEGIANCE TO MORE THAN ONE MASTER

MEDIA NOW POINTING OUT CONTRADICTIONS AND LIES

One has to wonder if the last 5 years of disinformation by the media has created an atmosphere in the Democrat party, that they can expect to be protected by a compliant media. Maybe, when it comes to socialist domestic policy and to savaging anything that challenges the entrenched bureaucracy, like Donald Trump, but the media obviously has more than one master. After all, they themselves are part of the entrenched bureaucracy.

They are also vulnerable to leverage by advertisers, by the regulators and the entrenched bureaucracy. Has the debacle in Afghanistan exposed those duel loyalties as it is a blow to those who live by continuous military expenditures and the opportunity for graft in foreign countries.

 

In the last few years we have gained some insight in the opportunities for large money transfers connected to foreign involvement and foreign aid. Hunter Biden's shenanigans in Ukraine and China are some examples. One must wonder how much of the billions in cash that was given to the Iranians was kicked-backed and to whom. We have also heard of many lucrative contracts in Afghanistan and Iraq that were given to connected Americans.

It seems that it is easy to receive bribes and pay-backs from foreign entities concerning foreign aid, defense arrangements and trade. Much easier than domestic money skimming which has many eyes and much political scrutiny. The Clinton foundation showed how much money can be harvested from foreign entities.

The last few presidential elections have just highlighted that money is concerned with foreign policy and trade issues and do not want the gravy boat rocked.

It is interesting that Biden started his press conference on Afghanistan yesterday by extolling the democrat progress on the domestic gravy train. Sort of saying, don't mind Afghanistan, we are going to have plenty of graft and opportunity, right here at home.

It will not be easy to cover up the tragedy of Biden's incompetent exit from Afghanistan. It is likely that his handlers did not fully understand that there are other issues besides domestic transformation. We can expect that the Taliban will be negotiating for years with this country for those people left behind after August 31. Will social media be able to silence those family members who advocate for their loved ones?  Will it be another topic that will shunned as a threat to democracy?

Are Dems and media setting the stage for Biden's exit?

HAVING LOST HIS USEFULNESS, BIDEN MAY BE ON HIS WAY OUT 

THEY CAN THEN FOCUS ON RAISING UP KAMALA AS THE BEST EVER

Many have been surprised by the media and even democrats savaging of Joe Biden this week.  After defending the indefensible for several years and coordinating on trashing Donald Trump, why the turnaround? Does anyone really believe they are concerned abound the Afghan people, the U..S. military, or any of the other reasons they express for attacking Joe Biden's performance? After all, Joe Biden is a media creation, he really never had any credible resume to be president, except he was not Donald Trump. 

They allowed him to hide in the basement through the whole campaign, covered up any of his numerous gaffs, covered up the corruption concerning his son, himself and his family, all in an attempt to win the presidency. He was the best they had, in a field that was humorous if not pathetic.

The real choice of the Obama group and the left was always Kamala Harris, sadly she could not get 5% of the vote, even in a democrat primary. Even now, she has dismal polls, but who else do they have? Can they jettisin her now, the first African American vice president and a women? Not likely. So, they may feel it is time to move old Joe out to pasture, right back were he came from. They can then refashion and rehabilitate Kamala into the best thing since Harry Truman. After all, they were able to get Biden into office, even if they may have had to cut some corners in the swing states. Why can't they do the same operation, all over again?

Many have noticed, they are keeping Kamala under wraps, not making comments, kinda just like they did with old Joe. They may have enlisted the best of their hollywood buddies to give her acting lessons, teaching her how to act like a president.

It is now 14 months until the midterm election. The midterm election season is going to start soon, they may feel Biden is going to drag down their candidates. So, now they have to come up with a plan to relieve old Joe of his job in an honorable way. They could claim health issues, many have been pointing out his possible senality daily. Problem is, then their opponenets could blame them for knowingly pushing him into office, when they knew he had problems. Or, Joe could just do the right thing and resign claiming he just can't do it. Or, they could take him out and blame it on the white supremacists who they claim are everywhere. That would really be a two for oner.

Whatever the way out, the sooner the better, so they can then put Kamala out there as the great moderate, willing to do whatever to unify the country. Politely, blame old Joe for giving into extremest policies and promise to do better for the country. CNN, ABC, CBS, MSNBC and social media can all get on board, or in bed so to speak, to raise her up to be the best president the country has ever seen. She will be a super hero president not seen in our lifetime, except maybe for Obama.

Well, think about that, it could be another very entertaining show.

Present U.S. government focused only on social revolution and expansion of power.

 IT IS SOCIALISM FIRST, NOTHING ELSE MATTERS

EVERY POLICY IS FOCUSED ON INCREASING AND MAINTAINING PERMANENT POWER

Many seem to have a hard time understanding the policies of the present administration. It is very simple, every policy is fashioned to expand and make permanent their power. It does not focus on the long term best interests of this country or its citizens. It is all about power, plain and simple.

Having overturned every policy of the Trump administration that insured a stable border and immigration policy, energy independence, reviving manufacturing jobs in the U.S. , making policies to encourage business 's locating in this country, rather than in foreign countries. Polices that would make America strong, independent and foster strong independent families and business's. It is clear their policies are intended to weaken America, its families and its business's. Hoping to make everyone dependent on the federal government for even the basic necessities of life.

Get this, Afghanistan has no hope of increasing the power of the Biden administration or the Democrat party, so it is inconsequential, irrelevant and unimportant. Do not doubt that the same irrelevance will apply to any situation, including Taiwan, Israel and South Korea that does not enhance its power and control.

Biden's first act was the illegal cancelation of the keystone pipeline which was to transport oil from Canada to the gulf. It is still being transported by train in cars owned by one of his biggest supporters. In the future it may be transported to the Canadian west coast and then to China. He has made changes that have already raised energy prices to near record levels, and then begged Russia and Opec to increase production. Transferring more money out of the country.

At the same time he overturned Trumps hard negotiated policy with countries south of the border to require all prospective immigrants to wait south of the border. Cancelled contracts for the border wall that have cost us billions of dollars that could have completed many miles of wall. He as much as told everyone, the border is open, come on in, and they did. It is no secret, many of these people will be registering to vote in the future. That is why they are fighting every legislation that insures that only citizens are allowed to vote. It is simply a policy of diluting the population that resists a socialist country with those who have no idea what has allowed America to prosper. It is all about political power. Can you understand why the democrats are moving toward mask and vaccine mandates for citizens and lets millions of untested and unvaccinated freely cross into the country. Political power is more important than safety for citizens.

Most of his executive orders have hurt small business and enhanced the fortunes of silicon valley and big business, his and his party's supporters.

We see this week that Amazon was awarded a $10 billion contract to store information for the NSA. This, after the NSA has been illegally paying the social media companies billions every year to collect data on American citizens. The same social media that has been cancelling the free speech of the democratic parties opponents. A true Fascist arrangement if there ever was one. All for the enhancement of political  power and a 1 party government.

All the spending, the rent moratorium, school debt forgiveness, and now a 25% increase in food stamps is all about buying votes, making Americans dependent and increasing the power of the democrat party.

If they get their next initiative which will raise taxes on the productive and buy votes of those to whom  they will transfer the wealth. A plan to increase the IRS by over 80,000 agents will harass and likely put much of small business out of business. Big business will have the resources to deal with this, but just the audits and legal costs will be the end of many small business's, supporters of their opponents.

The politicization of every part of the federal government has been going on for years, from the purging of Generals and Admirals during the Clinton years, to the filling of the state department, FBI, and intelligence community with ideologically pure employees during the Obama years. Now to the purging of the local police and enlisted soldiers, all in the quest to transform the country in every way possible.

Their Democrat supporters just watch and say nothing, believing that they are the good guys, no matter what they see before their very eyes. They are either engaging in personal denial or advocate the destruction of the country.

It is all about POWER,POWER,POWER , to end America as a country of opportunity and make a country of dependents and socialist mediocrity.

Now we can expect to see the internal Taliban struggle.

 THE HARD PART OF GOVERNING WILL NOW BEGIN

THE UNITY OF ENDING FOREIGN INTERVENTION WILL NOW DISAPPEAR

Having outlasted yet another foreign power, the tribal factions of Afghanistan are celebrating their victory and return to power.  Having prevailed by a policy of patience and understanding that no nation can expend its citizens and finances endlessly, they must now become a national government that actually is anathema to many of its supporters.

Afghanistan has never truly had a national government, but mostly a collection of tribal leaders and warlords.  The Russians supported a communist national government which never really gained a true foothold. This last attempt at a national government was supported and dependent on the U.S. financial and military aid. It was never a true national government supported by all the people.

Now the Taliban, whose ideology of Islam and sharia law and a desire to expel any foreign power has lost its unifying purpose.  It will be very interesting if they can actually form a lasting and unified government.

It seems that the Taliban has become much more sophisticated than their last term in power. Their present leaders may be inclined to be more moderate, to hope for international recognition, to actually declare amnesty and return to a more peaceful country. You can bet there are many in their ranks who would like revenge, retaliation and to continue a policy of brutal repression. 

Many of these young men have not known any life without war. This nation has been in a continuous war for over 40 years. There was little security and peace even before that time. Is it possible to just throw a switch and begin a peaceful transition? It is actually very unlikely.

The Taliban is now the beneficiary of modern military weapons, an air force, complete with fighters, helicopters and drones. Much of it is American weapons we supplied to Afghan government and also what we have had a policy of leaving behind everywhere we leave. We claim it is too expensive to bring home. When has expense ever been a determining factor of our policies? Will the Taliban be able to deal well with all this wealth and power?

We will likely see an internal battle on who will control what part of the government or even the country. Generations of tribal leaders will not want to be dictated to by even Taliban bureaucrats in Kabul. I can hear the cries of traitors to the cause and other internal bickering. If it is answered with violent suppression it may very well escalate into a full blown civil war with dozens of factions.

While many believe that the Russians, Chinese and Iran will now become dominate in the country, they are likely our state department and intelligence experts who seem to be wrong more than right. I believe the Chinese and Russians will be able to trade training and maintenance of their new found high tech military weapons for deals on mineral rights and other contracts.There will be business done with these countries but I don't see any of them wanting to get too attached to this country and its history.

Most of the world heroin production originates in Afghanistan. They already have been doing business with the cartels and can now branch out in supplying them with military weapons. The cartels can be a ready source of cash.

I suspect no one knows what the long term effects of this major change in the world scene will be. There is no doubt that it will not be a positive change.

Afghanistan: Political failure, not military failure

PLEASE STOP USING OUR MILITARY AS A GLOBAL POLICE FORCE 

IF THERE IS NO PLAN FOR OVERWHELMING VICTORY, STAY HOME

The last time we actually won a war was WW2. It was an overwhelming victory and it resulted in peace for many decades. Since we have embraced the role of the worlds policeman we have wasted lives and treasure in politically run police actions that have all been failures. The military should be used only when all diplomacy has failed. And if military action is necessary, it should then be given instructions to take whatever action is necessary for unconditional victory. 

We have the best military and equipment in the world, but politicians who have no idea about the determination of their adversaries. They believe that our adversaries act like themselves, that they can be bought, bribed and persuaded to compromise their principles cheaply. 

They have miscalculated the determination of our enemies and the patience of the American people. Our enemies know by our recent history that we can be waited out, that we like to tout negotiations and peace deals and that the American people have little appetite for endless wars.

If we determined that an invasion of Afghanistan was necessary for the safety of the country, then we should have embarked on a policy of eliminating every Al qaeda and Taliban in the country. If after we were done there were very few of age males left, so be it. If we are not willing to engage in all out war, then just shut up and stay home.

Our politicians and state department created the mess in the middle east. We financed and supplied Al Qaeda and the Taliban in an effort to depose the Soviets from Afghanistan. They were a creation of our foreign policy. We destabilized Iraq, our ally, a counter to Iran. We engaged in regime change in Syria, Egypt, Tunisia, Iraq and Libya. We created a migration crisis that is the worst since WW2 which has destabilized all of Europe We envisioned some kind of marshall policy for the middle east. A policy that used the rebuilding of europe after WW2 as a model. They never took into account that there were major differences in culture, religion and a distrust of the west that made it an inevitable failure.

They believed that money was the way to buy what we we wanted. Everyone is willing to take the money, but behind the scenes nothing has changed. Afghanistan is the perfect example. 

The failures of the middle east policy started over 40 years ago. I suspect many in the intelligence community and state department are still unwilling to admit their failure. 

We lived and co-existed with the Muslim world for centuries. When we determined that the rest of the world needed to adopt our way of life, a way of life that has been degenerating in the eyes of the populace in that part of the world, we embarked on a foolish  policy powered by our hubris that we could rule the world. We cant, nor should we. 

Everyone wants to reject everything Trump, but his attempt to restore trust and respect with our dealings with the Muslim world was a step in the right direction. Coexistence is possible, let them run their domestic policy the way they want. We have areas of common interest which we should cultivate, just let them live how they want in their countries.

It was no secret we were leaving Afghanistan, why did we not plan an orderly evacuation of our people and the Afghans who were our allies? What happened to the step by step plan, with conditions for compliance by Taliban.  Biden, in desperation, is now blaming the Trump administration. Biden had 7 months to plan for this eventuality, it is, plain and simple, a colossal failure of leadership.

Most Americans should have protection from the virus.

NUMBERS INDICATE IMMUNIZATION IS AS GOOD AS IT WILL GET

WHY DOES EVERYONE CONTINUE TO IGNORE COVID SURVIVORS?

We keep hearing that only 50% of Americans are immunized, but their own numbers question that assumption. The CDC claims 166 million are fully vaccinated and 195 million have had at least 1 shot. 

We are also told that 36 million have tested positive for the virus and they admit that they have a similar immunity as the vaccine. Mostly they ignore those who have had covid, like it is immaterial to their numbers. Everything that has been written claims a very similar or better immunity as the vaccine. 

Now it is estimated that the number of covid infected is double what they have actually tested, so we could add another 36 million if they would do covid antibody sampling.

166  fully vaccinated   195 at least one dose

  72  have had covid      72  have had covid

238  million                 267  million

Now the population of those under 18 is estimated at 74 million. There are still a lot of questions about the vaccine for those under 18 and it is not approved for those under 12. 

So if you add that number to those who have had covid and those who are vaccinated we come to 312. If we add those who have had a least one shot we come to 369 million.  The U.S. population is supposed to be around 330 million. So it likely the vast majority of Americans are protected from the virus either through a vaccine or having had the virus, except for children. 

As far as the immunity gained from having the virus, all the research so far has claimed you do have a strong immunity from further bouts from the virus. Health professionals have said you can get only 1 shot if you have been previously exposed and some have said no shot is needed. Some have claimed it could be dangerous to have the vaccine after being infected with covid. The CDC has not made any definitive conclusions or made statements about this.

Until there is actual anti-body sampling we will not know how many have had the disease. There is still a lot we don't know, both about the virus and its effects and the vaccine.

Don't expect a quick resignation from Cuomo.

 RESIGNATION WOULD BE AN ADMISSION OF GUILT

DEMOCRATS WANT HIM OUT

The pressure on New York governor Andrew Cuomo to resign from office appears at the time to be overwhelming. While no fan of Cuomo, I don't believe anyone should resign from any office because of allegations. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty. That can only be accomplished after his accusers can be cross-examined by his lawyers.

After watching the last few years and seeing dozens of people resigning their positions because of accusations of insensitive and borish conduct, some real, some not, some seem to be in the mind of the accuser, allegations are just that, allegations. 

After watching the Kavanaugh hearings, I do not believe there is a shortage of female accusers who are willing to attempt to destroy someone for political reasons. It is easy to see the democrat/republican divide and now we see the internal political divide working in New York. The far left of the democrat party is hell bent on political power and transforming the country. No one in their party is exempt. 

It is no secret that Cuomo has presidential ambitions, I would expect that the left wants him out of the way now. They do not want any democrat primary contest.

Cuomo may be easy picking's or at least appear to be, but a resignation is an admission of guilt and the end of his political career. He will more likely go through any process that they want to embark on, and even if found guilty, he can claim his innocence. Resignation is an admission of guilt.

We will see what a close examination of the accusers reveals. I expect they have been told they will be exempt from public scrutiny. All that changes when under oath in front of a jury.

Latifa James is without a doubt a power hungry, far left democrat, she sees herself as the governor of New York. Her supporters see her as being a source of  power, money and ideological purity. She has proved that she will use political power without restraint. On the other side will be the establishment democrats, not only of New York, but all across the country. If Cuomo is forced out, they may be the next target. 

It appears we are about to see if there is a middle of the road democrat left in the party. This may be the beginning of an attempted purging of all those who are not ideologically pure enough. Mancin and Simena will be at the top of the list, the pressure is on. It may get very interesting as we approach the next election.

Has the Federal government now nationalized private property?

HOUSING IS NOW CONTROLLED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT 

WHOSE PROPERTY OR INDUSTRY IS NEXT?

With the CDC extending the eviction moratorium for another 60 days another temporary emergency measure is now becoming permanent. While they call it an eviction moratorium it is really free rent for anyone who wants it. There is no recourse for landlords but to watch as their property becomes an asset controlled by the federal government. Is this just the first step in setting a precedent that in an emergency the federal government can take control of anyone's property or business?

We have been watching as the state of California has been fining, suing and prosecuting the electric companies in the state with the obvious intention of driving them into bankruptcy, and then for the good of the state, they will step in and take control of the energy producers in the state. 

How long will it be before many of these landlords are forced to just walk away from their properties as they watch their expenses, taxes and mortgage force them into bankruptcy. I assume that then the state will save the renters by converting into public housing. 

These actions will diminish the amount of rental housing, by discouraging property owners from placing any housing up for rent. It will likely discourage lending institutions from providing financing for rental housing. It will in effect make the housing crisis worse, as so many government actions do.

With the corona virus now becoming an extended crisis, we will likely see authoritarian governors and the federal government continue to mandate and use this opportunity to set precedents that will entrench their social revolution.

The governors and the representatives of the people who believe in fair play better step up now and put an end to this unconstitutional power grab by this government.

Federal government owes landlords their rent.

UNLAWFUL TAKING BY GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE MADE GOOD WITH INTEREST

THEY SHOULD ALSO PAY FOR ANY COSTS OR LITIGATION 

We now hear that democrat congresspersons want to extend rent moratoriums until the end of the year. I can hear it now, "You cant evict people in the winter and right at christmas time" If they had their way these properties would be confiscated by the government and given to their constituents without cost.

Its way past time for landlords to step up and say enough. Many are going to lose their property for failure to pay taxes and other costs. They need to band together and enter a class action suit, demanding their rent in full, their taxes reimbursed and any legal or other costs to be paid by the Federal government. This whole exercise was an unconstitutional act and the landlords are the victim of this abusive action.

The government should pay off the landlords now and then they can collect the unpaid rent from the tenants. The landlords will never be able to collect from the vast majority of these tenants. While we hear endless baying by democrat politicians about the tenants, not one word about the plight of the owners of the property. That is because they don't really believe in private property. They really do believe that the government should have all control of all property, including your home. They do believe that private ownership is anathema to their socialist cause. 

I don't hear anything from republican congresspersons either, are they afraid to labeled uncompassionate? What about compassion for the owners of these properties. This situation needs to be addressed now! This should be a priority, before infrastructure, before any other social programs.  They should clean up the mess they created before they create any other messes.

Is it now time to, "Eat drink and be merry?

BECAUSE TOMORROW WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE 

IF THE VIRUS DOESN'T GET YOU, SURELY GLOBAL WARMING WILL

Maybe its time for a new catchphrase much like the one made famous by old Timothy Leary. Leary's advice was to turn on, tune in, drop out. I think the one for today should be turn off, tune out and yes drop out. After all, it is all going to come to an end shortly, you might as well have a good time. Maybe adopt another catchphrase from Bob Marley, "Don't worry, be happy".

Stop worrying about taxes, just quit and do what makes you happy and you are free from taxes. After all, awaken to the new reality, low income and even no income is in, high income means you are part of the problem. With little or no income you now qualify for a long list of benefits. Stop worrying, be happy.

The virus is rampant and dangerous and traffic is such a pain in the ass, just stay home.

If there is no future, there is no need for education. Let the kids stay home and have a real quiet family time.

The schools are now a real pain in the ass. Masks, 6 feet apart, teaching your kids their no good and they need to repent and feel guilty. Let's just not go anymore. If no one goes, they can furlow the teachers and we can be free of more taxes. We can stop worrying and be happy. Might as well enjoy the short time we have left.

So, Turn Off; the news, the TV, the radio, facebook, they are all such downers. Stop worrying, be happy.

Tune out; that is, all negative messaging, from politicians, from the media, only talk to your family, friends and neighbors who are not worrying and are happy. You will now have lots of time, you can have get togethers on monday through sunday, forget about the weekend.

Drop out, that is employment, forget about it, why struggle and work when the future is so bleak. After all we see thousands living on the beaches of California, not a worry in the world, just sun, swimming, surfing, no taxes, no upkeep on the house. They are not worrying and are being happy. You can do it to.

Forget about making anything great again, that requires work, self discipline, worrying and all those other negative things. We need to set ourselves free from all that. Just stop worrying and be happy.

NOTE. The present overwhelming political negative messaging will likely affect the next generation in a very harmful way. All for political gain! It is no wonder that we see increases in drug use, suicide and other aberrant and harmful behaviour. We also see engaging life in the traditional manner of success is now viewed as greedy and self serving.  Maybe one day many more will adopt the philosophy of the above article.  What kind of messaging will the activists and politicians use to make people re-engage, once they decide that it is just better to drop out.
