I refuse to believe people who chose vaccines as a hedge against disease are at fault.

Vaccines have an impeccable history. Only the foolish dismiss their benefits.

As for mandates for the objectionists, I have little sympathy.

As for those that caused this calamity, the Chinese, the Politicians who sucked along to China over the past four decades and put us in our current vulnerable position, they should not now be given the responsibility to dig us out!

There is a desperate need to reconstitute our political system altogether, it’s an abysmal failure on too many fronts; especially on the front of trust in individual Politicians and their obvious attachments to vested interests, and their own personal interests.

Firstly it’s not unreasonable to subject them to drug and alcohol testing during their working hours in parliamentary duties.
We could eliminate alcoholic miss fits like Barnaby Joyce from any position of responsibility as an example, and work out from there.

While our scaremongering media yaps about a fourth jab against Covid (a third is not officially required for any activity, and overseas visitors who have just been double-vaxxed will soon be allowed back into Australia), they haven't bothered to report on Israel's Professor Yaakov Jerris's statement that: " … the the vaccine has no significance in regard to severe illness, which is why just 20-25 percent of our patients are unvaccinated".

70-80% of the cases in Israel, which was supposed to be the "showpiece" for vaccination, were TRIPLE vaccinated. Online 20-25% were not vaccinated at all.

I am triple vaxxed, and that's that. But, will we ever get the truth? Will we ever be rid of the shackles of government and allowed to run our own lives?

What have we learned? Well, that incompetence and complacency reigned supreme through most of the pandemic. And the wealthy and powerful were going bananas over the economic consequences with many wanting anything but what we got. But wanted a let it rip outcome that made the dollar far more important than human life. And reminiscent of the depression era were that mindset reigned supreme also. We also learned that the energy barons want to keep the status quo, as does big nuclear and big pharma. All of who would be threatened of made extinct, by the widespread uptake of MSR thorium and its daughter nuclear medicine byproducts, like the miracle cancer cure, alpha particle, bismuth 213.

We have a pandemic that has claimed millions of lives world wide! And as bad as that is, cancer has taken as many as 2 million lives a year for the last thirty years.

That's 60 million lives lost to a disease that needn't have been sacrificed at the altar of big pharma's profit curve? We pay through the nose for everything, given the energy component in all production and service delivery!

All while the most energy dense material on the planet, thorium, is deliberately withheld!

When will the puppet masters and their owned and operated pollies be brought to justice and their power to enslave the vox populi, ended?

We've also learned that this pandemic could have claimed far fewer lives had island quarantine been made mandatory across the globe for all international relocations, for any reason. Given the antivirals now in development, this measure and the treatment of all citizens with the best of these new antivirals. that kill 99.99 of all conaviruses. we still could eliminate this virus by depriving it of any viable host!

And a far superior than just let er rip Boris that is par for the course in too many juristrictions.

By far your best piece yet Murray. Now do the same on the global warming fraud.

I don't think he said "people who chose vaccines as a hedge against disease are at fault" Dan, quite the opposite. He is blaming bureaucrats for the disaster, absolving even the politicians as merely useful idiots.

This is even worse than the Global Warming scam, where tens of thousands have enough math to know it is bulldust, but won't speak out. Here so few of us have enough knowledge to even evaluate what we are being told, let alone understand the possibility. We can only rely on blogs to give us the "facts" of vaccine success & dangers, or the same with alternate treatments. Who knows what agenda some blogists may have, making them as doubtful as an information source as the MSM.

We can only hope the truth will come out, & we can give the conmen the treatment they deserve.

This is so true.

"Computer modelling and forecasts appeared to take on an 'aura' of fact. Most forecasts governments acted upon were wide off the mark in what actually happened. Yet decisions were based upon a belief in the forecasts rather than factual data at hand. Model predictions are illusions, not facts. A model prediction is just one of numerous potential scenarios. Modelling natural complex systems is flaunt with issues that make them inaccurate."

Modelling and forecasts are an educated guess at best, or, a contrived cherry picked data set to "prove" a wanted narrative or outcome.

In the future the ability to factually call out confirmation bias or divergent agendas will be critical

Hasbeen. So you think climate change is a fraud!? I don't agree!

That said, let us put aside that disagreement momentarily and focus exclusively on economic outcomes! Ok?

Energy is the key to economic outcomes and the cheapest energy is not coal-fired, but nuclear. That nuclear is not conventional nuclear but MSR thorium. Just 8 grams of thorium costing around $100.00 to mine and refine, enough to power your house and car for a century, without refueling!

Coal on the other hand, tasked with same outcome, costing you thousands. Moreover, energy cost always perculates up through the economy, doubling in cost with every transition from generation to wholesale, then again from wholesale to retail. From 6 cents PKWH to 24! Whereas, with thorium, co-op ownership and control, the starting point 1 cent PKWH and 3 cents retail! That's throughout the entire economy, from transport, service delivery, manufacture and pumping farm water etc.

I cannot see why we need all these steps when an energy co-op could supply direct to their consumer base! The only thing eliminated is the profit demanding, paper shuffling middlemen!

An outcome that would more than halve the cost of manufacture, doing business and the cost of living. Thus eliminating the pressure in the, dog chasing tail, that is the cost/wages spiral!

Wages being just 16% of the cost of labour. Whereas energy currently adds at least 30% to the cost of everything

Furthermore, what comes out of coal-fired smokestacks is more than just Carbon as CO2! There are things like carcenogenic cadmium, asenic, lead, mercury and radioactive uranium, to name some.

MSR thorium, has none of these problems! Is also carbon-free! Forget climate change! Just focus exclusively on best possible economic outcome! Climate change, real or imagined will take complete care of itself! And without anybody getting their knickers in a knot!

Let me remind you that some time ago I advised all who had shares in coal or coal-fired power to get out and invest in Lithium! A good businessman knows when to cut his losses and move on!
