Whoever Wins, We Lose

Today I address some of the comments from the last video, specifically regarding what was perceived as irresponsible concerning the current pandemic.

I want to clarify that I do believe the virus is a real thing. I do not know if the virus is the same strain that hit WuHan (it was extremely deadly there), but it is a very contagious virus that has spread throughout the world.

The problem I have with the pandemic control is the continued lockdowns. Lets take New Zealand as an example (I have viewers there). They have done quite well at eliminating cases, and I have now heard it called fortress New Zealand on several occasions. That is great, but what happens when they decide to open the borders? The virus will inevitably return. The only way lockdowns would actually work is if every country around the world locked down simultaneously. The United States has demonstrated this problem quite well. What good does it do for New York to lock down when Texas does not? As soon as the cases are under control and they open up, the virus will return. Even if the entire country were to have a harsh lock down, somewhere in the world there is going to be a country that has not done this, and the virus will return.

My point here is that lockdowns are futile. I believe this virus is now here to stay. There will be new strains every year, just like the flu. We will be receiving covid shots, just like we receive flu shots. The people in government telling you we have to lockdown know everything I just said. They are not trying to help us.

This is another example of government corruption. I want everyone to consider what I am about to say. When we are locked down, we cannot work. When we cannot work, they can pass these massive covid stimulus packages. How much of that stimulus money actually goes to you and me? Most of it is going to their pet projects (friends). They are taking your tax money, and using it to enrich themselves, and their donors. That is what I believe, that is how things are in government.

That being said, please call me out if you think what I am saying is wrong. Tell me what you think, because the truth is usually somewhere in between. Discussion is important, and this virus needs to be discussed. Why has it been more deadly in some places than others? Are the lower death numbers in places that didn't lock down because of a different strain? Or is it because people do better when they are in open spaces? Im not an expert, but I have not heard any experts answering these questions. Its time to hold the CDC accountable, they should be asking these questions and finding answers for us. Politics should have no place in an organization that is supposed to stop the spread of disease.

On a lighter note, today I am experimenting by using two different cameras. Is there a noticeable difference in the quality of the video at some point? Both are recording 4k video. If you see a change, let me know where in the video.

How about our elections? Word is that old Mitch the turtle cheated to win reelection. Can we have faith in the legitimacy of any of our elections? So much irregularity has been thrown in our faces (you will know about it depending on which cubby hole the algorithms have placed you). It really seems like we can say "oh well, I guess we don't really have freedom after all" or we can have a civil war. Pursuing the matter via elections is pointless if you can't count on them being legitimate. Pursuing it legally is pointless if you can't count on the courts to even hear the arguments. So what does that leave us with? Its as if all of us (Americans) have been transported into China without even knowing it. We have the illusion of freedom, but its just that, illusion.

As always, let me know what you think.
