At what point do we admit to ourselves that only an insane society risks massive loss of life among its children in order to procure the ability to risk massive loss of life among their parents in order to avoid massive losses of money among those who don’t care about either one?

Societies are by definition large enough to almost never be insane. Foolish yes. Stupid sure. But if you think a society is insane you should probably look for deeper insights.

What about an only child? Should they just stay locked up all the time? w no friends? bc 50% of deaths are people in nursing homes, that are already dying. The rest have (pre-) diabetes. Let’s address metabolic syndrome for the rest of us...more die from diabetes EVERY YEAR.

At about 5 years ago, when the GOP’s pledge to drown govt in the bathtub became a likely threat by Trump’s full-throated demagoguery You were of age in 2015, right? Warned us all how he would savage the nation if he won? Or nah, had other priorities?

After we admit we've been lied to about the severity of cv in the first place as a tactic to make sure Trump doesn't get reelected. Otherwise there would be no reason for the FDA to block successful treatments like HCQ.
