Beat me to it. Is anyone following this tripe any more.

I will say this: People are starting to talk of the lockdowns like they talked of 9/11, or the space shuttle explosion, or Pearl Harbor. Meanwhile the damage is still being done. My closest city, Lousiville, KY was hit hard by the government response. LG&E, Humana and a third large employer (I forget the name) have drastically reduced their downtown footprint. And businesses that supported the employees of those businesses suffer for it. The amazing Deli in the LG&E building closed down permanently immediately. Stevie Ray’s, a local blues bar that was a staple of the area closed down. And all the folks who live in downtown condos, what of them? It’s drying up.

Meanwhile, my son was in the construction industry in Seattle with work flowing from everywhere. Not any more. And now Amazon is cleaning out some of its office space permanently. We’re seeing amazing business culture changes or businesses ending. The full impact is just starting to rear its head. Hence my tag line.

Mass insanity for 2+ years, and now people just shrug their shoulders about Covid. There will be no accounting or consequences for what happened because too many people bought into the madness. So now they will pretend like it never happened.

I expect a construction boom in converting empty commercial real estate (aka cubicle hives) into apartments for the invaders.
