Why is everyone sitting around waiting for the government to come up with an answer to their pandemic problems? 

Did the government give us accurate information in their models when this started about how many people would be infected and die? No. 

Were they ready to deal with such a huge problem? No. 

Are they the ones treating and saving people in the hospitals? No. That would be doctors and nurses. 

Did they protect the most vulnerable in the nursing homes? For the most part, no. 

Are they the ones who will come up with a useful treatment and vaccine? No, that will probably be BIG PHARMA who the democrats constantly rail about. 

Do you support individual military members being able to opt out of getting the COVID vaccine?

Are they the ones making the ventilators, masks, gowns and gloves? No. They don’t make anything. Private businesses did this. 

Are they letting you make a living so you can support your family and pay your bills? No. They are the ones stopping you from doing that and arresting you for things that the constitution guarantees you including freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and freedom of religion. 

Did the government give you your unemployment, your stimulus check and your small business PPP loan in a timely and fair way? No. Their unemployment websites crashed, they gave millions to big businesses instead of small businesses and I haven’t seen a stimulus check. By the time most people get any money that’s supposed to help them, it’ll probably be summertime. 

Are they the ones who are saving us from other medical issues like cancer and heart disease and drug addiction? No, they are keeping us away from our doctors and out of the hospitals because if you don’t have COVID-19, then too bad for you. You’ll just have to wait to get treated. In the meantime, they are bankrupting our hospitals. 

Does the government have any more information about the virus than they did in March? Not really. 

Will the virus be spread by mosquitos? Who knows. 

Can pets get the same type of virus or spread it to other pets and people? Who knows. 

Can you get COVID-19 for the rest of your life if you’ve already had it once? Who knows. 

Is the virus being spread through nursing homes, cruise ships and police stations through their ventilation systems? Probably, but the government isn’t looking into it at all. Not one mention about it that I’ve heard. 

The government doesn’t do anything well. They don’t make anything. They don’t move swiftly even when they have good ideas. They are the enemy of efficiency and never solve any problems. And all the while, they oppress their citizens, telling them it’s for their own good. 

I am no fan of Mitt Romney but he said something at CPAC in 2008 that is very fitting for the theme of this article. He said, “Dependency is death to initiative, risk-taking and opportunity. Dependency is a culture-killing drug. We have to fight it like the poison it is.” 

It’s time to take charge of our own destiny. 

WE are the answer to this crisis. We always have been.
