I very much appreciate this article. Thank you for writing so clearly and candidly on the topic. This needs to be seen by the greater public.

I live in DC where some of our residents can no longer enter a restaurant. Soon, they may be barred from grocery stores, banks, and from receiving healthcare. Then what?

Sarah, Thank you for the kind words and for the Dutch link. Your warning will come to pass if more voices aren't raised.

Very enlightened essay. At least Bill Maher and Bari Weiss now recognize Covid tyranny. And they want to banish Thomas Sowell’s books from the library. I hope the American people wake up!

Nazi comparisons are unnecessary. Americans were already accustomed to having some of their neighbors carted off and disappeared for not having the correct papers, just by calling ICE on them and declaring them to be "illegals". The laws were already discriminatory and were cheered on by many of those who were safe from such human rights abuses simply by virtue of where they were born.

Diane, Thank you for the much appreciated kind words. It's been quite a few years since I read Ackoff but anything that gets humanity off simplistic cause and effect reasoning helps real solutions to emerge. Too many people want quick fixes and thus are attracted to superficial reasoning.
