[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 5115456, member: 65823"] On Oct. 30, 2020, just days before the presidential election, Joe Biden tweeted, “I’m not going to shut down the country. I’m not going to shut down the economy. I’m going to shut down the virus.” This was a lie. It was a lie because [I]nobody can shut down a virus. [/I] Government does not have the power to end disease, as a general matter. Even the sainted Dr. Anthony Fauci has admitted: “we’re never going to eradicate this … elimination may be too aspirational.” The government should not aim for elimination; it can aim for some level of control. There's the battle. That control must be balanced with counter concerns, from the suppression of economic freedom, choice, and social isolation. The lowest-cost intervention and most effective was the distribution of vaccines — thank you Trump. The worst form of control is what we have seen since Biden raised his hand and thought he was swearing into the Boy Scouts. [/QUOTE]
