The covid pandemic engineered the largest transfer of wealth from small, independent businesses to mega business in the history of the country. All the big businesses were allowed to stay open while small businesses were forced to close - many of them permanently. Big pharma made enormous amounts of money and they have demonstrated they are willing to knowingly kill people to make money.

I'm now at the point where he's running the show at Los Alamos, herding the cats (scientists) who are inventing the bomb at the same time trying to get his security house in order for the spooks who are running around suspecting everybody.
There's a lot to be said about this era, things that were unknown then that we take for granted now. The very idea of nuclear fission (splitting a heavy atom) was unsuspected until December 18, 1938, when it was discovered by two German chemists. Even after this only physicists had any idea of the power potential of the atom. Einstein sent Roosevelt a letter warning of the danger. Physicists hitherto were looked at as merely kooky harmless eggheads of no ...
