“Unfortunately, common sense is just not common. We have to regulate every aspect of people’s lives.” -Councilman Jesse Dominguez
Daniel Henninger of the Wall Street Journal sums up these micro-totalitarians, perfect examples of the Progressive philosophy: “The essence of modern Democratic Progressivism is: You will participate in what we have created for you, and you will comply with the law’s demands.” One used to believe that before pen was set to legislative paper, our elected officials WOULD contemplate “is this Constitutional”?

As we find ourselves bogged down by petty tyrants and local lords wielding emergency powers repugnant to both liberty and the constraints of state and federal constitutions this passage might help us explore the real threat (and it’s not a virus).
This may be one of the most comprehensive collections of data on the topic that I’ve seen to date. It is a compendium of links, data, reports, news, and research on the negative effect of the Political Response to COVID19.
