Covid

The latest results show that 1,181,607 people in the United States died from Covid and 857,000 of those were over age 65. These were people who for the most part were no longer contributing to the economic growth of the country but in fact were considered a drain on resources. They were collecting social security and paying little to no taxes. Their contributions were of a different kind not related to GDP. While the government took measures to minimize the spread of Covid, things like vaccinations, wearing masks, social distancing and closing schools and businesses, they left the door open for easy transfer of the virus in one important area. They allowed millions of illegal migrants to cross the border and move inland to various locations around the country and these people were not vaxed. They were spreaders of the virus and there is no way to determine how many deaths they caused. These migrants were not adversely effected by the virus because they were mostly young healthy people but they were carriers. This policy or lack there of was an unforced error on the part of the government. They shut down entry to the US for all who were not vaxed except for the migrants crossing the southern border. They even kept out people who had natural immunity but let in the migrants. No one was held responsible for this error in judgment and if there were another pandemic, would the same thing be allowed to happen.
