Errata and addenda with one big errata, indeed

The selection of Senator Kamala Harris proves that Biden will NOT do anything to be POTUS (even if only for a year? By his impossibly narrow criteria, it should obamiously have been Michele Obama) but it DOES prove that Harris will. Way back in January, she called Biden a racist segregationalist (who can forget her fake tears over "being bussed" when it was actually impossible for that to have happened to her personally?). Now she carries his name with pride and in the second most important political harness in the World (hopefully never to be the most with all the disaster that that implies +). Suffice it to say that Harris, after denouncing her own record as an AG in CA, will be the perfect black female complement to Biden who has spent most of his campaign denouncing what paltry achievements he was able to cobble together in just 45 years. She is the African American XX chromosomed classic example of Vidal's evil Senator Cantwell ("Bad character in a man is tragedy enough; but for a Nation it is a disaster.") or...Hilary. "God bless America, Land that I love, stand beside her and guide her through the night with the light from above."

THIS JUST IN!...Patrick Brown is a stupid asshole. Search: "Mayor Patrick Brown's Hockey Bag" to see what a truly dumb scumbag those of us not living in Brampton really dodged.

Insurance Can Do It! -

 Are there too many horses out of the Barn for us to consider the idea I had at least 3 months ago and was reminded of again by a caller on talk radio in the States? Might the thieving monopolist assholes that comprise the Placid Gold-filled Lake we call our "Insurance" Industry have been conscripted to underwrite a National/Provincial COVID Insurance Plan? Any surplus or bankrupting liabilities could have been underwritten in turn through a Re-Insurance Program that would have cost the taxpayer a fraction of the cost of the COVID stimulus SO FAR. The cost to a business (beyond maintaining local authority standards and PPE) would have been the premiums (which the state would no doubt insist be nominal or at cost) and some stationery would be nothing compared to being closed down.

It would work this way: If you want to go to visit any hard business site anywhere, you must sign a release to the effect that you will not sue the business if you get COVID unless you can prove gross negligence (like not complying with mask requirements). This release would be posted at the main entrance of the business or organization (church or school) with a petition style name section that would also require a name and phone number in print so follow-up could be effected if there was an outbreak. (Hell, use the lists for marketing if you want!)

In the end, the customer or parent or student or worker or parishioner would have a choice. After all, there is only one reason for not going to a business:: fear of dying from COVID or giving it to someone who dies. If you can prove that happened (or temporary disability) due to gross negligence, your estate or family can claim damages accordingly. If you do not want to go, do not. Choice: I like the sound of that! Making the Insurance companies do their patriotic duty without more obscenely huge profits - priceless!! It's never too late for our benighted and beknighting "leadership" to prove they are more than medical stenographers and give us a chance to live with some sort of modicum of normalcy again.
