Trump Authorizing Another $1 Billion for Food Box Program

President Donald Trump announced on August 24 that his administration is authorizing an additional $1 billion to a food distribution program that pairs struggling producers and American families strongly impacted by the shutdowns in response to the Wuhan-Coronavirus.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) program, Farmers to Families Food Box, which first kicked off in May, ensures the delivery of billions of dollars worth of fruit, vegetables, and other farm products that might have gone to waste because of the shutdowns and restrictions, to food banks and nonprofits that serve the needy.

Dems’ Neglect of the Working Class Comes at a Price

The Democratic National Convention showed that the Democratic party is focussed on various social justice policies, gun control, defunding police etc., but has little interest in the working class. Now, blue collar voters are increasingly turning their back on the Democratic party. Many of them voted for Obama twice and then voted for Trump in 2016. As it looks right now, even more of them might vote for a second Trump-term, which would actually be in their self-interest, given that Trump brought back hundreds of thousands of jobs, which were outsourced to China and other countries under Obama and Biden.

This is encouraging as it shows that many working class Americans, regardless of skin color, are seeing through the distraction game of identity politics.

Party At Ground Zero: Wuhan Water Park Hosts Massive Concert With No Distancing Or Masks

If it is apparently safe for thousands to celebrate without restrictions in China, in the very city from where the Wuhan-virus (later also called Sars-Cov2, Covid-19, or novel Coronavirus) originated, the question becomes compelling: why shouldn’t the rest of the world follow suit?

Mass protests and “peaceful riots” with sometimes thousands of people have been taking place in the United States for a couple of months now and the millions of American Coronavirus-deaths, which were prophecied in March, and used as a justification for unprecedented restrictions, have never materialized. Maybe it is time to acknowledge that this virus is not that deadly after all.

Why we Should Not be Afraid of Covid

Harvard Medical professor Martin Kulldorff explains in this Article from April why distancing measures are counterproductive and that the only way out of a pandemic is herd-immunity, which can quickest and most reliable be accomplished by exposure to the virus.

While anti-herders have since taken over the domination of mainstream media, their plea for more restrictions is unscientific.

During the four months since Kulldorff’s article was published, some jurisdictions, such as Sweden and South Dakota have followed the scientific approach and refused to implement any restrictions, lockdowns or mask mandates, while others, such as California, Belgium, Spain and Michigan have imposed draconian measures without regards for basic civil liberties. The data proves Kulldorff right: even the harshest of restrictions have yielded no benefit at all, while the places that chose to embrace natural herd-immunity, like Sweden, are much closer to leaving Covid behind.
