 Welcome to the Knuckleheads of Liberty. Another area, too, that is really taking a hard shot for young people. It's not just their mental health, but it's their earnings going into the future. And this is part of what's probably affecting their mental health. And maybe we could get this image up on the screen. But there was this UK article from Economics Observatory, it looks like. They're literally talking about the effects both short and long term of what it's going to do to the lifetime earnings of graduates. And they're talking about a lot of these students losing several percent of their lifetime earnings for this. And that's a lot of money. I mean, if you figure that this could be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars that kids will be losing over their lifetime. Because of these, you know, terrible policies by government just saying, hey, shut it all down. This is hysterics, safety hysterics, safety theater. And by the way, it's got a huge price tag and young people are going to pay for it. What do you guys think about that? Well, yeah, go ahead. I'm sorry. Oh, I was going to say that we already as young people have suffered because of the over inflationary policies that we've been instituting. We're earning less than our parents did at our age, pretty much. Our career prospects are already on the decline. And the fact that this is what's going on right now only makes the problem even worse. Like I couldn't dream of owning a house, even though my parents own a house. And so that's just a result of bad government policy all around. Indeed. I truly wish, you know, all of the people, all of the guilty parties in this disaster could be sued for the lost earnings. I wish we could sue the teachers unions. I wish we could sue the government, all the state governments who engage in this nonsense, all of the administrators in the school. I wish you could just sue them to smithereens for our kids who are going to suffer because of this disaster. And you see, maybe I would have understood if you say, well, we're going to just shut down the school for two weeks or three weeks. And they actually did that, but then they're going to open it back, you know, maybe we won't at the beginning of the pandemic. We're a little bit uncertain about the severity of the virus and all that kind of stuff. We didn't have enough information. I would have accepted even though it would have been wrong. I would have accepted. I would have accepted that explanation. But this thing went on for a year and a half. A year and a half, even after we knew that little kids are the least vulnerable, even after we knew it was still going on. I wish we could hold some of these people accountable. I really do. But this is this is a slippery slope Leon once you abandoned those principles. And I mean, I was just apoplectic when I heard two weeks to stop the spread. And that was what they were talking about initially. And I mean, you know, we kind of we actually had a show in studio when we were doing libertarian counterpoint. And it was me, Leon and our invisible hand James. And we were talking about as we saw COVID coming on the horizon, I think it was in March of that year or something. And we said, you know, there's probably going to be some quarantines. And, you know, is it we were debating the ethics of quarantining somebody who's sick. We were just absolutely shocked that they quarantined everybody. I mean, they locked down the economy. And that was, you know, the issue, you know, once you once you throw out those principles and you say, hey, you know, we're going to lock stuff down. And, you know, you don't have a choice and we'll tell you, you know, what your risk, you know, evaluation should be. At that point, you know, there's no end to it. And that's what we saw, you know, two weeks turned into forever. And for some people and some jurisdictions, it's still going on with. We're still asking kids to wear masks and all that kind of stuff. And in some places, you know, we have to social distance. I mean, all those things are the social distancing and is okay. But, you know, the mass wearing and all these other things and they're still going on little kids who are suffering because of this. Look at the mental condition. Some of these kids, they need to see the teacher's face for them to connect with the teacher and to learn, but they put in this mass on their face and telling them this is the environment in which they're going to strive and survive. No, no, it's failing them. Well, you know, daily wire had a great video where during the Super Bowl where they put it out and it showed or actually was just after the Super Bowl and they compared Los Angeles County where they had a mask requirement in place. And they showed all the little kids who were just, you know, going through this horrific experiences, little children, you know, three or four year olds at five year olds don't understand any better being forced to keep masks on you know and of course kids getting nasty stuff all over their face all day and you know, just having that mask. It's just, oh my gosh. And then they go to the Super Bowl where the responsible people who put these things in place and nobody was wearing them, you know, you had Governor, or excuse me, the the mayor there in Los Angeles. Eric, Eric, Eric, I'm going to say to you. And I believe he said, well, I think it was him who said, well, I, it was okay because you know when I, when I was, I only had my mask off when I wasn't breathing or something. He said he had his breath. He said he had his breath. So that was okay. That was okay. Yeah, you had a celebrity after celebrity who just went on tirades about people wearing masks, shaming people. And then here they were, you know, and they're having a good time out in public. Gavin Newsom, Gavin Newsom was in French laundry with people all around and this was during the height, height of the pandemic, people all around him, no mask, no social distancing. And these are the people implementing this garbage upon us. And he was at the NFC championship game too, just before the Super Bowl. That's right. He held his breath the whole time. I'm sorry. I didn't realize that. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I apologize. I think that's how he legislates. He just holds his breath. And that's how all these good ideas come out. Wait until his face turns blue and then whatever, wherever the pile lands, that's when you're legislating. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness always.
