Guest Post by John Stossel
America remains bound by often extreme pandemic restrictions.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends staying 6 feet away from others. In Oregon, everyone must wear a mask outdoors. In parts of the country, 2-year-olds must wear masks.
Are such rules necessary?
Recently, Denmark lifted all pandemic restrictions.
“Go Denmark!” cheers George Mason University economist Don Boudreaux in my latest video. “We in the United States should do the same.”
“We reduced COVID, through vaccination, to a fairly mild ailment for the vast majority of people,” says Boudreaux. “You don’t have to worry if the bartender at your favorite bar is vaccinated or not. You are protected against suffering severe consequences. Get vaccinated, and then go about your life normally!”
Portugal and Sweden recently removed most restrictions, too. The United Kingdom ditched plans to require “vaccine passports.”
“We don’t have to continue to upend human life in our quest to eliminate COVID, which can’t happen anyway,” says Boudreaux.
“Why not?” I ask. “We eliminated smallpox.”
“Smallpox resides only in human beings,” explains Boudreaux. COVID-19 can live in animals — bats, deer, dogs, cats. “We have never eliminated a disease that uses both humans and animals as reservoirs.”
Still, China acted as if eliminating COVID-19 were possible.
They’ve kept deaths much lower (if you believe their numbers) than other countries by imposing nasty repressive measures like quarantines at gunpoint and even locking people in their homes.
“It’s just awful. It’s tyrannical. It’s what you expect of a Communist tyrannical government,” says Boudreaux.
Australia’s been almost that tough. They’ve also imposed curfews and arrested people for not wearing masks. In some places, police proudly announced they “smashed windows of people in cars and pull them out … because they weren’t telling us where they were going.”
Don’t worry about losing freedom, says Daniel Andrews, premier of the state of Victoria. “They’re not rules that are against you. They are rules for you.”
“So say all dictators and tyrants,” retorts Boudreaux.
These countries can’t lock down forever. When the lockdowns stop, COVID-19 will return.
That’s why Denmark ended COVID-19 restrictions.
“It’s not admitting defeat; it’s admitting reality,” says Boudreaux. “We learn to live with COVID in the same way that we learn to live with many other pathogens. … The bacteria that caused the Black Death is still circulating in the human population. A handful of people every year still die of it.”
In the Wall Street Journal, he wrote, “Eradication of Covid is a dangerous and expensive fantasy.”
“We live with countless hazards, each of which we could but sensibly choose not to eradicate. Automobile fatalities could be eradicated by outlawing motor vehicles. Drowning could be eradicated by outlawing swimming and bathing. Electrocution could be eradicated by outlawing electricity. We live with these risks not because we’re indifferent to suffering but because we understand that the costs of zero-drowning or zero-electrocution would be far too great. The same is true of zero-Covid.”
That’s why, now that we have largely effective vaccines, he says it’s time to end pointless lockdowns and do what Denmark is doing:
“Live life normally again! Travel, go to parties, weddings, sporting events. Live life and be joyous! Hopefully, humanity will come to its senses soon.”
I hope he’s right.

John, you’re about 18 months behind the TPB crowd, but congratulations for finally waking up.
Assclowns like Stossel are never going to wake up.
One decent report that contradicts this narrative and he will jump ship. Princip.rs have never truly mattered to this guy.
John, It is up to us to resume life. That is the first and most important action required.
“Safe and effective vaccines”. Snicker, snicker.
It’s not about a virus….
The New Normal
“The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government combining supercapitalism and Communism under the same tent, all under their control. … Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent.”

That’s called fascism.
No dickhead. It’s called totalitarianism .
You’ll get your UBI via your Control Phone. All your approved debits will be tracked . There will be no unapproved debits. You’ll buy only what the Beast System sells and when your funds run low, you will be illegible for a loan via Control Phone to acquire that now financialized pizza.
And when you debt exceeds your credit limit i.e. you monthly UBI stipend , you’ll go to the work farm .Eventually everyone goes to the work farm. See Ayn Rand’s Anthem for reference.
You’ll own nothing and be happy.
Here’s another quote concerning financial control of everthing. If you think it’s a contrived quote, read the book. The link is right there. Regardless, make of it what you will.
“I do not believe that this primal difference between gentile and Jew is reconcilable. There will be irritation between us as long as we are in intimate contact. For nature and constitution and vision divide us from all of you forever . . . I have no doubt that when Germany and England and America will long have lost their present identity or name or purpose, we shall still be strong in ours . . . We have joined your capitalistic world in deliberate emulation and rivalry: yet Jewish socialism and Jewish socialists are the banner bearers of the world’s “armies of liberation.” . . . But you feel our disruptive difference most keenly, most resentfully, in our deliberate efforts to change your social system. Seen in the dazzling lights of your desires and needs our ideal is repellently morose . . . Because your chief institution is the social structure itself, it is in this that we are most manifestly destroyers. We Jews, we, the destroyers, will remain the destroyers for ever. Nothing that you will do will meet our needs and demands.”
You Gentiles

It takes real arrogance to just admit in such a manner that you are truly evil and uncaring. That stinks of Satanic minion. You Joos need to learn how the program works. #YouGentiles
Can you confirm that with a link to Papa John’s?
It’s the zilch app…
https://www.payzilch.com/
Do you think Zilch will be financing hookers, that would make pimping a whole new career move?
Yep, even Satanic Joo Xmas music. They’ll finance it all…for six weeks. After that , if not paid back in full, they own your soul and your Joo record collection.
How is this any different than a credit card? Hmm, I wonder if there are investment opportunities….they make 11.5% in 6 weeks(?).

THE END
Stop blasphemer. John Stossel is the Gray Champion. He will lead the heroes to LOLbertz freedom.
There has never been a pandemic, there was never any need for any of these measures, their purpose is wealth transfer from the lower classes to the elite and increasing their power and control over the population.
WEF’s Event 201 and Rockefeller’s foundation Lockstep put together, the whole thing is a sham.
Covid isn’t any worse than a bad year of flu, shut the fuck up already you fearmongering faggots, people like John Stossel need to hang from trees.
