Can’t believe how fucked up people are about this whole thing.

Why NR....let me tell you why?
This was a scam...with the idea of a RESET.
To fundamentally change the US and the world....its all coming out now.
And they are so brazen they are talking about it.
The reforms POST covid....ohhhh FLU has NOTHING to do with the flu but EVERYTHING to do with how we live our lives.
That is what this whole thing was about!!
And about gov newsom.....let me just say he did NOT use science for ANY of this. He used MODELING to make his decisions....but we really based on trying to get a RESET of our lives..
The RESET from the International Monetary Fund...or IMF spells out EVERY Liberal Agenda item that has not been successful and under the fake pandemic are now pushing.
For those of you who do not click on links....here ya go.
First, let me first talk about green growth.
Governments can put in place public investments—and incentives for private investments—that support low-carbon and climate-resilient growth.
Many of these investments can lead to job-rich recovery—think of planting mangroves, land restoration, reforestation or insulating buildings. Think of the key sectors for reducing carbon intensity where both the public and private sector can invest.
I am particularly keen to take advantage of the low oil prices we see today, to eliminate harmful subsidies and introduce a carbon price that would work as an incentive for future investments.
Second, let me talk about smarter growth. We know the digital economy is the big winner of this crisis. But we must not allow the digital divide to widen so that some countries and communities fall further behind. This would bring more pain than gain in the future.
So, it is critical that institutions like the IMF support investments that will shrink the digital divide—working in partnership with the World Bank and others.
We also need to think carefully about how to make sure the jump in growth and profitability in the digital sector leads to benefits that are shared across our societies.
And that takes me to my third point—fairer growth.
We know that—if left to its own devices—this pandemic is going to deepen inequality. That has happened in prior pandemics.
We can avoid this if we concentrate on investing in people—in the social fabric of our societies, in access to opportunities, in education for all, and in the expansion of social programs so we take care of the most vulnerable people. Then we can have a world that is better for everyone.
I want to conclude with an example from the past. William Beveridge, in the midst of the Second World War, put forward his famous report in 1942 in which he projected how UK should address what he called the ‘five giant evils.’ That famous ‘Beveridge Report’ report led to a better country after the war—including the creation of the National Health Service that is saving so many lives today in the UK.
And my institution, the IMF, was created at this time as well—at the Bretton Woods Conference.
So, now is the moment to step up—and use all the strength we have—to turn the page. In the case of the IMF we have a one trillion-dollar financial capacity and tremendous engagement on the policy side.
This is the moment to decide that history will look back on this as the Great Reset, not the Great Reversal.
And I want to say—loud and clear—the best memorial we can build to those who have lost their lives in the pandemic is to build a world that is greener, smarter and fairer.
Thank you.

And look for those buzz words....FAIRER GROWTH.....GREENER...
All of this means despair for wealthy countries and movement of capital to less wealthy.
Hell even Kamala was in S America....(?) telling US Corp to INVEST in those countries....
Ummmm that means LESS not MORE jobs for Americans.....FFS
Yes...that is part of the RESET.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

It’s amazing what delusions the Reset crew will believe.

74 MILLION knucklefucks have proven that they'll fall for anything. January 6th coupled with the fallout and support afterwards demonstrates how dangerous these nuttbagg "patriots" are to the future of our democracy. Obama should never have given them their guns and bibles back. Hey.......wait.....

Nawwww, not a mental disorder, but the preponderance of liberals I know think more with their heart, not their brains. (granted, some conservatives the same, but in far fewer numbers)...... IMHO.

"let me just say he did NOT use science for ANY of this. He used MODELING to make his decisions."
The models were based on science. Of course you have to make some assumptions because you don't have the complete set of data, but you can work around that by using a range of parameters to see if your output remains robust (i.e. similar).
The Imperial College model made several assumptions that in retrospect were faulty. First of all, it assumed exponential growth of the virus. We now know that new cases and deaths grow sub-exponentially. Secondly, it assumed a too high case death rate based on what had transpired in China and what was going on in Italy. We didn't have great data then, something John Ioannidis and others pointed out quite well. While these changes would have given different quantitative results, perhaps lowering the estimated 2.2 million dead in the US if we did nothing, qualitatively we would certainly had the same results. The model basically made us painfully aware that if we did nothing in the wake of the virus, we would have a swamped hospital system and millions eventually would have died. And this prediction was likely correct. An economist recently (with another model) estimated that 1-1.5 million (I forget the exact number so I'm giving a range) citizens --the same order of magnitude as predicted by the Imperial College model -- would have died if not for the vaccine, based on the effect from the virus alone.
When making decisions, you treat the output of a model as a data point. You obviously need other data in order to make a final decision. And there was other data -- what happened in China and what was going on in Italy.
