This dangerous imbecile is attributing job losses to deaths, as if it were govnts (not the virus) who caused the losses , & as if measures did not reduce fatalities (cockpit locked door paradox in #TheBlackSwan). Aside from the odious approach to a "trade-off". Shameful & stupid.

Another great column. That’s why they call Home Depot a “home improvement” store and not a “home investment” center. 🏡
