The shutdowns were a failed and futile strategy that accomplished nothing.


I’d have to look at worldwide numbers again, but It seems to have worked everywhere but here

Not so sure about that. Apart from a couple of outlier countries that are not like us at all, the places that are now doing well were hit very hard. Can you really attribute where they are now to their shutdown? Or was it a case of the virus doing its thing and running its course? You see the same thing here in the US. Cali shut down long and hard, but guess what? When they opened the virus was there waiting. Many can't accept this, but the virus is just going to have to run its course. It is arrogance in the face of nature to think we can solve this with government dictates like shutdowns.

Just for fun, look at the virus fatality curve of Sweden, which did not shut down, and compare it to that of many of the European countries that did.
