Wow... talk about a gigantic Neanderthal SUPERSPREADER! Texas is doomed to have (even assuming an R of 1, and likely much higher than that) AT LEAST 40,000 additional "cases" and who knows how many additional hospitalizations and deaths in the coming 2-4 weeks. You know, just like we've seen in Florida at all those amusement parks and concerts, etc. Okay, so that didn't happen in Florida, but it will in Texas... just you wait! THE SAFETY CULT knows all! Even when they are wrong... time after time after time after time after time. Them and their Saint Fauci... wrong to the limits of human wrongness... and still going strong, thanks to the mass of sheeple (mostly aka Democrats). Hawaii will continue to lead the way in stupidity, ignorance, irrationality, lack of transparency, and worship at the feet of the fascist authoritarian statist idols. And so it goes.
Note the Michigan graph, where hard core Democrat governor Gretchen Whitmer keeps upping the lockdown "mitigation measures" as the previous ones fail to "stop the spread". Keep doing the same thing, only more so, and expecting a different result. Yeah, that's rational.
From Tom Woods today:
The divergence between the two Americas is growing wider.
Remember Joe Biden's promise that if we just followed the voodoo for a few more months, we might be able to gather in small groups by July 4?
Here's a scene from Texas yesterday:

Texas and Mississippi opened fully a month ago. Here's how it's going:

Of course, you can imagine the screeching if those lines were reversed, and Texas and Mississippi were the ones rising.
But because the numbers look like this, total silence.
Incidentally, even if this were all to go away tomorrow, it would still be crucial to talk about these numbers. We have to do whatever we can to make sure people
don't think,
"That sure was a tough year, but thanks to those of us who followed the mitigation measures, we got out of it."As it is, despite our best efforts -- and my 2009 book Meltdown, which spent 10 happy weeks on the New York Times bestseller list -- people still think "deregulation" caused the financial crisis of 2008, even though when you ask them which repealed regulation would have prevented the crisis, they can't name one.
They still think laissez-faire capitalism caused the Great Depression. Those of us who have read Murray Rothbard's America's Great Depression, or know something about Austrian business cycle theory, know the truth. But that's a tiny sliver of the public.
You'll note what all of this has in common:
Freedom causes crises, and the alleged experts fix them.
You need us, citizen. We keep you safe. We clean up the messes caused by allowing you too much freedom. We are smart. You are dumb. Trust us.Um, how about you go jump in a lake, and we'll live our lives?
As I posted in response to the Ohio governor's grandstanding during National Public Health Week, "The 'public health' establishment has disgraced itself with arbitrary decrees based on nothing. That anyone could still think any of these measures do the slightest bit of good after examining charts from other, less restrictive states is a testament to the power of belief over reason."
