Lockdown: Blamed if you impose it and blamed if you lift it

Lockdown: Blamed if you impose it and blamed if you lift it

Imposed a lockdown was both about health and about politics because it had both health and political repercussions on top of having enormous financial consequences. Politicians are blamed for not imposing a lockdown and politicians are blamed for having imposed a lockdown. At the end of the day, we know that no economy in the world can survive almost total paralysis. If major economies collapse, other economies around the world will collapse because we are interdependent of one another.

This is worse than 1929 and we know what happened as a direct consequence of 1929. World War Two was one of the direct consequences of what happened in Wall Street, New York in 1929.   

According to the League of Nations, the world's population in 1929 was about 1,833 million. In 2020, the world's population is estimated to be 7,800 million. The pressure in terms of having to meet the needs of a population that is more than 3 times bigger than the population of 1929 is gigantic.


The challenge is clearly visible. Economic demobilization at this point time can have dramatic repercussions. We are talking about mass starvation and conflicts of unbelievable proportions.

World War Three is inevitable. The signs are already visible

World War Three is inevitable and the signs are already here. Religions and economic interests are going to play a major role triggering a conflict the likes of which the World has never seen before.

Listening to some so called World Leaders, it is obvious that there is complete disregard for human life and the worst atrocities are simply ignored.

Practically every crisis in the world could be avoided by investing resources where they are really needed. Instead, those in charge of the purses are more interested in armaments and war.

Never mind if billions of people are living in the most decadent and unbearable circumstances because they don't have enough to eat, don't have the resources and know how to produce the food that they need and don't have the medicines that they need to tackle the most curable of diseases.

We live in a permanent state of madness and madness is producing the most unbelievable and most deplorable examples of violence and cruelty.
