  1. That' an interesting take. I've never seen a study that connected NOT watching Youtube with limited intellect. Do you have a citation for that? I was not able to find anything online.
  2. I didn't realize Britain was following a "one-jab" strategy. And it seems to give comparable results. (Images from The New York Times)
  3. Thanks for jumping in. I Googled Wycliffe but didn't gather the background you provided. 😁
  4. Sorry, this took off after I commented that the OP was full of unsubstantiated claims. For some reason dimreepr responded that some British schools are charities and it went south from there.
  5. That's not individual perception. It's a different description and different data but not a difference of perception. You are being slippery again.
  6. Tough to tell without any references. Guess it is now up to the reader to verify the claims of others.
  7. By your definition of slavery nearly every law would qualify as a form of slavery. Which of course renders the term useless. Perhaps you could find your own term and not try to redefine "slavery" for the rest of us.
  8. Well, now that you've provided evidence I feel much better...
  9. I'm unsure how your unsubstantiated claim of schools as charities is any better than Firebirdy's claim of schools as concentration camps.
  10. I've never seen so many unsubstantiated claims in one post since I've been here. Biden is a "terrorist"? Public schools are "concentration camps"? Give me a break.
  11. Ok, I'll be honest with you. You come across as someone who is pissed at the world and uninterested in having a serious conversation. Perhaps you need to start a blog.
  12. I forget. Did you say you quit your social media accounts and other forums, or were you kicked out?
  13. I don't have any skin in the game on this one which is why I'm a bit apathetic. I would like to know too, although people like to present data so that it shows them in the best light.
  14. No, but I'd bet a shiny new dime that when governments were talking to drug companies they weren't dealing with one of the field sales reps who was scheming so that he could afford a two-week vacation in Italy this summer. I'm not sure. What is your goal once you have the information? Are you looking to call out liars? Hold people financially accountable to the citizens?
  15. I don't have enough information to say either way. Do you?
  16. Those are your only two options? That's your only evidence? Clearly you've come to a conclusion absent reason or evidence.
  17. You are as slippery as an eel. I give up.
  18. To the best of my knowledge the relatively large quantity is a result of Operation Warp Speed. https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-21-319 Basically the US spread a lot of money around covering multiple strategies without knowing what would be successful. This increased the likelihood of at least some wins. In addition, the public/private partnership has seen activities such as the Army Corps of Engineers overseeing construction projects to increase manufacturing capacity.
  19. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/12/us-tops-100-million-covid-vaccine-doses-administered-13percent-of-adults-now-fully-vaccinated.html Why would you be surprised? Do these companies have a history of lying?
  20. Is this some new initiative that was announced or are you just suggesting it would be a good idea?
  21. WHY does the short development cycle make it less acceptable for political decisions surrounding the use of the Astrazeneca vaccine?
  22. How does knowing how long it took to develop this vaccine vs others tell us if politics is involved in the pause in the rollout? If this vaccine development cycle is longer than past development cycles, does that mean political decisions on vaccines are more acceptable, or less acceptable?
  23. Tells us what things???>>??__>%%^^
  24. Is it hard to believe because you are expecting hard chunks in your smoothie? I'm no chemist, but if ground fine enough it would be difficult to discern. In addition, calcium carbonate does dissolve in water, although various factors affect how well.
  25. I can imagine myself lifting a rhino. Or seeing my son being born again. How can that be possible to do in reality?
