Your Daily Dose of Common Sense
March 20, 2020
I LIKE what Chuck Baldwin says in his latest column about adults not showing fear:
My parents lived through the Great Depression (and two World Wars). I grew up listening to their experiences of living in the Depression. For poor people (which my parents were), the Depression was horrific. Today’s Americans know nothing of suffering in the magnitude of that terrible period of U.S. history.
And I can tell you emphatically that at no point did my parents (or grandparents or aunts and uncles) ever show fear. Never! Neither did they demonstrate selfishness nor panic. They spoke repeatedly of deprivation, sickness and want, but never of fear. And selfishness was not in their vocabulary. In the worst of times, they prayed, worked and worshiped together….
… Mark this down: When people are consumed with fear, they have already surrendered their hearts and minds to tyranny. [bold added]
It’s worth reading his column in full. Here’s more:
Why don’t the media tell us that the coronavirus has been around since the 1960’s? Why don’t they tell us that 30% of common colds stem from this virus? Why don’t they tell us that there is absolutely no way that these countries with far less medical sophistication than the U.S. could identify the cause of all of the so-called corona deaths as being attributed to COVID-19?
Most countries don’t have a smidgen of test kits for COVID-19. For that matter, most of the states in the United States don’t even have sufficient test kits for COVID-19. And many of the testing kits that have been dispensed here in America have already been returned, because they didn’t work. So, you’re trying to tell me that all of these foreign countries have accurately diagnosed these deaths as being from the coronavirus or COVID-19? Give me a break!
People with weakened immune systems from other diseases are susceptible to any virus—including corona. And for some, contracting corona could be the last straw or could lead to the last straw. But that does not mean that corona is a death sentence. Far from it.
The next time you hear of another reported case of “coronavirus,” remind yourself that this is most likely not COVID-19. The CDC and fearmongers in the government and mass media want to scare us with the word “coronavirus” and make us believe that everyone who has corona has COVID-19 and is going to die. IT JUST ISN’T SO.
This is pure fearmongering designed to produce panic.
One absolutely cannot trust much of the data provided by the World Health Organization and the CDC. These organizations have a vested interest in exaggerating data to the worst case scenario, as frightening reports guarantee increased financial assistance for these organizations from the government.
In further news, governments continue to over-react. California has ordered everyone to stay home and Britain is preparing to place troops on the street to provide emergency services for as long as six months. As Baldwin says, this is Medical Martial Law.
