It is heartbreaking. I feel like I am surrounded by people who have given terminal diagnoses and I am waiting for them to die. A current client has just had her third jab and is suddenly suffering heart problems that are preventing them from remediating a prior problem surgically, because now they are unlikely to survive the anesthesia necessary.
All we can do is be rational, stay abreast of current information, and act to benefit ourselves and our communities, including our loved ones, through the recently decentralized means of production now available to us to create personally the blessings of civilization and avail our peoples of those blessings outside of centrally controlled industry.
While I live, this is what I will do to the limit of my abilities.
I hear you, valued customer. I am to the point where I'm actively looking into ways to reverse the demoralization, mass formation, and mass psychosis this whole pandemic is inducing. And when you add to that, the fact that friends and family are walking headlong into their demise makes it almost unbearable. The latter part of your comment is superb advice and the most productive areas to aim our focus. Staying tough and practical is about all one can do. Hold on and be strong!
