Default The medical system . . .

I went to my dentist in April '22, no mask, but they gave me one, had to wear it when I walked down the hall, lol. Last October, NO MASK needed, same thing last month.

I had a routine doctor visit in November, walked in no mask, but they gave me one and I had to wear it. My doc had a mask and face shield, lol. He's about 56-57, real nice "regular" guy, been going to him since 2004. But he was big on the clot shot (which I never got) and when I asked him in the late summer of '21 about natural immunity, he said "It doesn't amount to much." I knew better, because the truth was out there for anyone to see but I let it go, didn't feel like getting into a heated argument with him.

I had another routine with him yesterday; their computer called me on Monday to remind me of course. I actually listened to it, and buried in the middle was "and everyone must wear a mask . . . " I almost cancelled it because of that, but didn't.

So I walk in sans mask, a woman was in the waiting room -- NO MASK. The (extremely unattractive) women who took my info had NO MASKS. As it turned out nobody there, including my doc, was masked and nobody mentioned it.

There is a second doc that works there a couple days a week that I saw a few times two years ago. She is mid-50s, thin, long dark curly hair (my downfall) and I figured she was pretty hot even though half of her face was covered then. I saw her yesterday in the hall, NO MASK, and said "Hi" to her and she is quite doable, no wedding ring as of two years ago anyway.

So the silliness is over for now, til next summer or so. There will probably be some new virus a month or two before the election so the tyranny will ramp up again. They know how compliant Americans are now and will do what they're told, so there's no reason for them not to do it.

The medical system is like the jilted husband whose wife is running around on him. Everybody in town knows it except him. He is the last one to find out.

The scamdemic is officially over, yet there are still idiots walking around with masks on.

And some radio stations in my area are still telling parents to get their kids "jabbed". Who in their right mind would inject their kids with the clot shots at this point in time?

The same people stupid enough to fall for this crap are the same ones who lined up for the clot shots.

I’ve noticed it’s mainly older black people who still wear masks, they’re terminally addicted to being mindless slaves on the Democrat Plantation and thrive living the victim role.

At the doc’s the other day, there was zero mention of face diapers, clot shots, or the word “Covid.”

It’s like the past three years never happened. I wonder if they all realize that they’re on the wrong side of history?

They know it and most of them are embarrassed by it. They hope by not mentioning it everyone will simply forget about it and it will fade away. I have news for them. I don't forget and I never forgive. **** those communist bastards.

Yet again, the failures of socialist central planning, arranged by bureaucrats. They are oblivious to free-market signals as their incentives are not from that; instead they focus on job security by maintaining and expanding their fiefdoms.

If instead, left to the push-pull of supply and demand, there would not be "too many doctors." With central planning, there are no market signals for shortages or over-supply.

I remember reading a story about the Soviet Union and the foolishness of central planning. Bureaucrats in Moscow were to determine the price of tractors tires, as delivered to farms in Siberia thousands of miles away.

There was no way in hell that could be calculated other than by a free market. Multiply that failure by a zillion, for everything on the market from shampoo to fertilizer, and one will understand why socialism cannot last and will always end in collapse.

I actually used a mask yesterday.


A bird shit on my window and I didn't have a paper towel.

Masks are effective.

Went to doc's office yesterday, he and his staff are still wearing masks.

Went to Publix (grocery store for those of you not in the know) last evening, saw at least three shoppers wearing masks.

Still see the solo idiot drivers wearing masks.

There will always be masks, there will always be sheeple!!

I assume they are either ugly as a mud fence, have nasty teeth, or have the IQ of a kumquat.
