Pandemic

This Covid-19 episode is a pandemic backed by medical science, but these medical advisors to the President are not political scientists. I do not deny Covid is dangerous and that social distancing is necessary, but I believe we will all get it anyway, so we need to get on with it, so we can get on with out lives. 40 years ago Ronald Reagan said government is the problem not the solution. Here are some objective political truths. 1. Government is the problem, never the solution but Walz's state of soft tyranny, his martial law is tyranny, and that is an evil worse than the pandemic. It must end right now 2. Liberty, constitutional republicanism, self-determination, freedom, individualism and free markets are inalienable rights not to be infringed by a despot with excessive executive powers--ergo, a noble protest at his mansion. 3. Private solutions can be had and usually work. Public solutions almost always turn to muck, so Walz needs to stay the hell out of it. 4. Centralized power grabbed by tyrants in times of emergency is an addiction that grows upon such despots and sickens them all the way through. We need to end his dictatorship right now. 5. Centralized power corrupts and Progressive faith in public solutions grows tyranny, reduces freedom and privacy, and enthralls all citizens. In light of these objective truths, conservatives conclude rightly that unconstitutional quarantining of healthy people has to end right now.
