Krazy Kommie Bill Di Blasio just decoded to add 3700 deaths to the NYC corona totals based on … suspected ( ‘ without evidence ’ as the press likes to say about Republicans). The Governor of Minnesota did something similar. Scientifically doesn’t that make all the statistics into total garbage if people can just make up numbers for political reasons.?
Oh for Gods sake ……..DECIDED !!!!
Brian Dennehy lived in my town and attended the Catholic High School up the street. As of 2003 his brother still lived here and I used his niece as a travel agent. One I saw him pumping his own gas at a station, after a double take I went around the block to make sure but he was gone by then.
Because of the way the ChiCom/Wuhan virus got out, it probably got out by mistake. But if they were working on it, it might mean that it got out prematurely, that is, before it was ready. Could it be a blessing in disguise; that is, that because of this mistake the world has been alerted to what is going on behind Communist closed doors? Perhaps what they were working on was something far more lethal.
I RI, about one in seven of people tested are being found to have the ChiCom virus. But keep in mind that they are only testing people who have symptoms.
It is absolutely a blessing in disguise. At worst case, it’s like Bill said at the beginning, a drill. At best, it gets us de-coupled from the Chinese socialist totalitarians, and at this rate, from not just useless organizations within the UN like the WHO, but perhaps ultimately from the UN altogether. The list of potential beneficial side-effects, if we learn the right lessons, is growing.
Solving problems that have never been solved before cannot be hastened by a panic, crash, all-hands-on-deck effort. It takes the exactly correct deeply skilled, knowledgeable, and personally committed individuals to be free to work voluntarily on the problem. If solved, it will be solved using inadequate resources in the time it takes to solve the problem. The catch 22 of that is it is TOTALLY unknown who are the exactly correct individuals with the necessary qualities. Also, it is unknown what resources are necessary to complete the task successfully.
It is the fact of the unknowns and unknowable that make more money, more panic, and more brute force only able to hinder and stop progress. This is largely due to the political, social, and scientific feeding frenzy that always happens in such environments. Real work and real progress gets lost in the maelstrom of competing forces and special interests.
All that happens is trillions of wealth disappears, problems will not be solved, and the fake problems demanding resources will expand to consume all of the available resources. All while the unknown and potentially successful effort will be starved of minimally necessary resources. See the 50+ year long war on Cancer, Poverty, and Illicit Drugs as cases on point.
