The Bizarre Refusal To Apply Cost-Benefit Analysis To COVID Debates by Glenn Greenwald

August 26, 2021August 26, 2021 EarthNewspaper.com Comment(0)

Are those who oppose a ban on cars or a radical reduction in speed limits sociopaths, given the huge number of people they are knowingly consigning to death or maiming? While arguments are common about how this framework should be applied and which specific policies are ideal, the use of cost-benefit analysis as the primary formula we use is uncontroversial — at least it was until the COVID pandemic began. It is now extremely common in Western democracies for large factions of citizens to demand that any measures undertaken to prevent COVID deaths are vital, regardless of the costs imposed by those policies. Thus, this mentality insists, we must keep schools closed to avoid the contracting by children of COVID regardless of the horrific costs which eighteen months or two years of school closures impose on all children.

“Some people think the Federal Reserve Banks are US government institutions. They are not… they are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the US for the benefit of themselves and their foreign and domestic swindlers, and rich and predatory money lenders. The sack of the United States by the Fed is the greatest crime in history. Every effort has been made by the Fed to conceal its powers, but the truth is the Fed has usurped the government. It controls everything here and it controls all our foreign relations. It makes and breaks governments at will.”
Louis Thomas McFadden

------------- Abortion -------------- ----------- by Mark R. Elsis ----------- Thou shalt not kill. Is there something people don't understand about the Sixth Commandment? I do not believe in government-sanctioned killing, whether it be abortion, capital punishment, or being drafted into a war. There have been about 70,000,000 abortions in the United States, since the despicable Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision on January 22, 1973, that approved this genocidal mass murder, called infanticide. Perhaps we should have informative sexual education classes for teenagers, and contraceptives for all. Perhaps people should live up to their obligations, instead of using abortion as an easy way out. Because abortion not only murders the fetus who has no say in the matter, but also does significant psychological harm to the mother, and many times for the father too. And now we have added two new demonic lows to this most horrific act of abortion, Planned Parenthood has been caught selling baby parts from the abortions they provide, and eight states have no gestational limits on abortion, they are: Alaska, Colorado, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Vermont, along with Washington, D.C. If one wants to know when the United States lost its way, and turned into a completely immoral country, it was on Monday, January 22, 1973.

"The USS Liberty was repeatedly attacked while in international waters by Israeli air and naval forces on June 8, 1967. The horrific result of this unprovoked attack by the Jewish state was that 34 Americans were murdered, and 174 were wounded. Then there was a complete cover-up of this premeditated mass murder, and for the first time in our history, there wasn't any retaliation against Israel for committing this act of war. And people naively still think we aren't owned by these deadly parasites." Mark R. Elsis

James Forrestal was of Irish Catholic origin like the Kennedy’s and was close to JFK’s father. Both James Forrestal and Joseph Kennedy are examples of American patriots of Irish stock who were alarmed by Jewish influence over American foreign policy. The entry for December 27, 1945, in James Forrestal’s edited diary states: “Played golf with Joe Kennedy. I asked him about his conversations with Roosevelt and Neville Chamberlain from 1938 on. […] Chamberlain, he says, stated that America and the world Jews had forced England into the war.”
