A graph that overlays data from surveys on mask usage with the number of coronavirus cases confirms studies that indicate the face coverings have no significant impact on the spread of the coronavirus. Using data culled from YouGov.com and the Covid Tracking Project from March 20, 2020, to March 3, 2021, economist Brian Westbury created the chart and posted it on Twitter. Surveys showed mask usage reached about 80% by midsummer last year and has remained consistent since then. During that period, however, the number of daily positive cases rose and fell precipitously.
This just barely scratches the surface. It sure does show the greed of a few given power. Just like all progressive/liberal ideas (not that conservatives aren't greedy either).
As we are knee-deep in tax season, I thought it might be useful to explain why Americans aren't rioting over the size of the ever-ballooning national debt and yearly federal budget deficit – how Washington is taxing and spending us into oblivion and yet we just don't seem to care. One of the reasons is surely that many Americans don't feel they have skin in the game. Sure, during each election cycle, when a pollster calls, we tell him or her that fiscal responsibility is one of our top priorities. Consistently, in virtually every national poll, among the top 10 concerns of voters in 2020 were taxes, spending, debt and deficits.
Some basic food for thought. America is really quite full of sheep.
More about me later on. For now I'm just a tech junkie and farmer!
