you can't possibly think that they know the results and can calculate every possibility before they landed on the moon or came up with the vaccine.
therefore they put the time and effort in to research all probabilities and possible outcomes, with their super computers.
then they made their best educated guess at the course of action to proceed with.
and yes it is a guess cause unless you are all knowing and all mighty, there is no 100% surety in this world that i know of
it is a probability game and the moon landing could of gone totally different in a second, thank goodness it did not although a lot of people don't believe they ever landed on the moon (conspiracy theory)
and the vaccine might turn out to be more detrimental to future generations than we know now (not saying it is going to be, but there is a small probability that the "experts" overlooked in their research and development.
Either way, i had my shots and don't want anymore. Let nature take its course now.
I would much prefer government start spending more money on health system via technology and automation, as well as better compensation for the people that work the front lines.
Perhaps get some competent managers to make the system more efficient and streamlined and less waste of the budget they are given to work with. (warehouse full of product that is out of date)
I worked for a window company a long time ago and wages weren't great. I asked one long time, very skilled employee why he didn't go somewhere else for better pay.
He replied "I do OK and the owner is a decent guy, comes by and asks about me and my family."
That was when a person wasn't judged a winner or loser by the label on their tee shirt or car.
What is more important to you, money or respect?
Nothing is more terrifying to commerce than content people that don't need stuff to pamper their over inflated egos. Content people don't need designer tee shirts, five dollar coffees with their name on the cup.
Going out for a meal used to be a treat. Now only about half our meals are home prepared.
Money is not respect. We have lost the feeling of satisfaction that comes from doing a job right, getting fair compensation and a sincere thank you.
Buckle up your seat belt. Christmas is a Petri dish for consumerism. Over indulging and guilt buying of stuff that ends up at a garage sale or dumpster. All those kitchen gadgets for a society that is getting further and further away from cooking at home.
Sorry for the hijack but more money isn't the answer. People have become so down graded and numerized that they will cling to any semblance of respect. Conspiracy theories and delusional freedoms give them vain hope of recognition.
