I love the Edward Abbey quote. Interesting analysis. Something he touched on only briefly really registered with me. I find it ironic that so many progressives are infatuated with Sweden, yet those same people aren't following Sweden's example when it comes to handling the coronavirus. I've said it all along....protect the vulnerable with a passion, practice common sense hygiene, live your life. Yes, this is an unpleasant virus, but our collective reaction to it should give us all reason to question what we truly value.
