But imagine, for one moment, that the lockdowns, masks, or vaccines actually did work. Would that mean the government could force us to take experimental vaccines, lockdown society, or mask up into perpetuity? Because that wouldn’t address the myriad other problems that Ms. Weiss describes as the result of government policy when it comes to COVID, like rampant loneliness, depression, anxiety, drug abuse, and suicide.
No, the problem with vaccine mandates, lockdowns, and compulsory masking is not that they don’t work, but that they take the life out of life. The problem is that by submitting to all of that in order to have a small sense of security, we traded our freedom to go to church, to dine at our neighborhood restaurant with friends, to attend a football game, to earn a living without being forced to inject substances into our bodies, and to even see our friends and neighbors smiling at us when we pass them at the grocery store.
Those are the things that make life worth living. And even if lockdowns, masks, and the vaccines did work, what we’ve seen these past two years would still amount to nothing more than an unjust and tyrannical violation of our God-given right to life and liberty, which our government exists to protect.
