Four months ago, I wrote a column titled "The Worldwide Lockdown May Be the Greatest Mistake in History." I explained that "'mistake' and 'evil' are not synonyms. The lockdown is a mistake; the Holocaust, slavery, communism, fascism, etc., were evils. Massive mistakes are made by arrogant fools; massive evils are committed by evil people."
Regarding the economic catastrophe in America and around the world – especially among the world's poor who are dependent upon America and other first-world countries for their income through exports and tourism – I wrote, "It is panic and hysteria, not the coronavirus, that created this catastrophe."
Unfortunately, I was right.
