More than two weeks ago, the governor of Texas completely reversed his devastating lockdown policies and repealed all his emergency powers, along with the egregious attacks on rights and liberties.
Then a new virus came along - as if that had never happened before in Texas - and the new Zoom class took the opposite path, not freedom but imposition and control.
The US has many examples of open states that have generally had better performance in managing the disease than those states that are closed.
Yes, each open state experienced a seasonality wave in winter but so did the lockdown states.
Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke of Texas revealed himself to be a full-blown lockdowner: It's a "Big mistake," he said.
The open states have generally performed better, perhaps not because they are open but simply for reasons of demographics and seasonality.
I'm making no predictions about the future path of the virus in Texas.
