One Swedish Model To Copy: No More COVID-19 Lockdowns

  1. We'd at least consider economic lockdown proposals as sincere if public servants such as Kashkari and Fauci had to lose their jobs, as ordinary people do.
  2. Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank President Neel Kashkari is the latest to create a stir by saying he favored a really hard four-to-six week lockdown of the economy to get the virus under control and help the economy rebound later.
  3. As economist Abigail Deveraux, a research fellow at the Institute for the Study of Economic Growth, noted in a report for the American Institute for Economic Research, it’s obvious that if you restrict and ban certain businesses, they will suffer for it.
  4. While condemning ordinary folks for gathering, Fauci recently again got lockjaw when asked about all those peaceful demonstrators who refuse to observe social distancing and who wear masks but only so they can't be identified by the police.
