Sorry to people that don't want to hear it, but y'know how COVID-19 has a lot of the same symptoms as the flu? And how hospitals got more money for COVID deaths than the flu?
They marked flu deaths a COVID to get money, and that's why there was a dramatic 'decrease' in flu deaths. Masking up didn't do it.
I'm not trying to be a contradictorial ass, but that legitimately is what they did.
Also nobody likes to talk about it but the vaccines are gene therapy, which was illegal until this hit, then it was fine.
This being legalized prior could have saved lives from cancer
But nope people's gotta make money
So anyways, the cases of the flu didn't decrease because of masking up, and breathing in your own germs weakened your immune system.
Now, for that comment about unemployment and stimulus checks.
How would we have any commerce if we all got paid to sit around and do jack shit?
We wouldn't. Paying people to not do anything isn't helping the economy.
Stimulus checks weakened the economy because it worsened inflation. In 2010, the inflation rate was around 1.6-1.7%. not too bad. In 2021, it was 5%. In 2020, just so you can't say it increased with time, it was 1.23%. last year, 2022, it was a whopping 7.5%. that's what happens when you dump money into the economy.
In 2006, right before the great recession, the inflation rate was a mere 3.22%. we're at 5% right now. Your stimulus checks and extra 3 trillion into the economy has launched us into a recessive economic trend.
That's not an exaggeration, either. The stock market has been in a constant fall for the last few years, and it started when COVID began causing mass panic.
However, I do agree on your prison points. Those are good ones.
But seriously, look at the large scale economics for this stuff, not the small scale, because when you look at the small scale it may seem great, but at the large scale things couldn't be farther from the truth.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk lol
