by Jeffrey A. Tucker, Ron Paul Institute:
Now that we can talk to our friends and neighbors about it, the reality is sinking in. What our public-health experts and politicians did to this country was egregious. Inspired by the totalitarian lockdowns in Wuhan, China, and urged to replicate that policy by the World Health Organization in a report that Fauci’s National Institutes of Health approved, all constitutional rights were thrown out.
The churches were shut. The schools were closed, in some places for as long as two years, thus sacrificing the education of a whole generation. We faced restrictions on house parties. We could not visit the elderly in homes, not even sons and daughters who were paying the rent. There were even restrictions on travel between states: quarantine rules made it impractical.
