We're coming up on 200 days of "14 days to flatten the curve." At this point, anyone who still places their faith in the so-called experts is a sucker. Even Bill Gates -- the czar of all things COVID -- is losing faith in the FDA and the CDC. Of course, he's losing faith in them for different reasons than most sensible people. He doesn't like them because they aren't kowtowing to his will for governments to keep us all in COVID lockdown for the rest of our lives. However, one government has been overrun by a COVID scandal. Emails leaked this week showing the mayor of Nashville talking with his health department officials. In the email chain, they highlighted that the overwhelming majority of positive COVID cases were associated with care facilities and construction, with fewer than 100 total associated with bars and restaurants. Yet they agreed to deliberately withhold this information from the public as the mayor was publicly choosing to suddenly extend the Phase 2 lockdowns, leaving bar and restaurant owners high and dry just before 4th of July weekend. You all know this already: the lockdowns have nothing to do with the severity of COVID. They're just a proxy for politicians to virtue signal and consolidate power. If you're choosing to remain a victim of circumstance, in the face of everything that has already happened, then you can only blame yourself. There's no savior coming for you. The only good news on the horizon is whatever you will create for yourself. It's time for you to take control of your own life.
