Why can’t people handle Liberty?

Let’s look at this “crisis” and realize the amount of problems created by Govt.

First Govt forced people to isolate and creates a massive economic windfall. Then Govt has to make that less painful and pass all kinds of programs to “help” and we think this is necessary because government told us to stay home in the first place. They told supposedly free, private enterprises to shut down and told free, private citizens what they can and cannot do.

Why do we accept this? Why do we call for this in the face of any adversity?

Here is how Liberty and freedom of choice works:

1. There is a dangerous virus. Media warns people of who is most susceptible and informs that if you’re elderly or have underlying issues then you should self quarantine.

2. Life goes on as normal. No economic crises. No massive Govt spending.

3. People and businesses make individual choices on how to best handle this. Some will make poor decisions, and some of those will die. Society is now better due to weaker people having died off. We must deal with it as a fact of life.

4. Human ingenuity finds a cure and we all emerge stronger than before without going through massive financial pain. A few of us mourn the loss of loved ones.

It’s really that fricking simple.
