What is the cost of taking a RISK?

At FREEDOMGOFORTH.COM we quite frankly are tired of being told by anyone claiming to be our overlord that we must do this or that, or that we cannot do this or that. We live in the United States of America and not only treasure our FREEDOM and LIBERTY, but we will do whatever is necessary to protect it and preserve it. All of us have a limited life span. You can either choose in this short period of time to be productive and beneficial to our society, or you can choose to wallow in cowering fear under a cloak of oppression and distortion. How do you choose to live, and who do you choose to rule your life? “WHAT IS THE COST OF TAKING A RISK?” There are many in our Nation who have chosen a path of least resistance, one in which simple compliance makes for less friction but produces laziness and communal acceptance under the rule of those who claim to know what is best, who do not care for your wellbeing, but who only care for their own acquisition of power and wealth, and they will tell you whatever they think will help to bring about your submission to their will. We remember a few years ago about a well-known radio host who described this process in his own life experience in school. He had decided to run for president of his class or school but was up against another who sought the same office. The opposing candidate promised everyone a trip to Disneyland if their candidacy was successful. Well, it was, but guess what? There was never the possibility that anyone was going to get a free trip to Disneyland, and they didn’t, but the school students wanted it to be true, but for the candidate, it did not matter. All that mattered was winning the race regardless of anything promised, for it was a fool’s dream. Many have been living in a similar dream-state in the last several decades, a mesmerizing, hypnotic like trance brought about for any individual who desires something for nothing, brought about by those who care not for the fulfillment of any statements or promises made. Over the past 15 years or so, we have been reminded of similar tactics used to entrap our Nation’s citizens into a false sense of hope, believing that anyone claiming to share the wealth at the end of a rainbow would lead to their own happiness, fulfilling all their dreams of a life free of effort and toil, full of comfort and wealth.

Do you remember some of these promises made? “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.” These promises turned out to be far from the truth, where health plans not only surged in cost, but forced many out of their customary plans into ones vastly more expensive, and where many were forced to change service and doctor providers. More recently, do you recall these statements? “. . . I’m going to shut down the virus”, a statement made by the current occupant of the White House during his campaign for the office of President. How well has that gone? Now, the same person is making other promises, ones he knows cannot be achieved in his short tenure in office but knows will give hope to millions just because he said it. He is going to reduce cancer by 50%. It’s an attempt to bolster his sinking pole approval numbers, but in reality, will do no more than what was done in his previous attempts. On January 13, 2016, then President Obama tapped the current occupant of the White House to lead the fight against cancer, saying “Let’s make America the country that cures cancer once and for all.” This was certainly a worthy effort, but ended up being only verbal hyperbole, with no plan or real efforts to achieve it, and lead only to false hope and more broken promises. At a campaign stop by the same individual he said “. . . I promise you if I’m elected president, you’re going to see the single most important thing that changes America, we’re gonna cure cancer.” (June 11, 2019.) The current occupant of the White House founded in 2017 his own “. . . Cancer Initiative”, but in the first two years gave NO grants while spending millions on salaries to former Washington D.C. aides. “The charity took in $4,809,619 in contributions in fiscal years 2017 and 2018 and spent $3,070,301 on payroll in those two years.” “The group’s president, Gregory Simon raked in $429,850 in fiscal year 2018 . . .” Tax filings reveal that $56,738 were spent on conferences and $59,356 spent on travel the first year, and $97,149 the second year. They spent $742,953 on conferences. (New York Post, Isabel Vincent, November 14, 2020). This was just another one of his scams, to enrich himself and cohorts, to engender hope in the masses all too willing to believe. Do you trust your tax dollars with this guy? This seems to be a theme of the current government in Washington D.C. The Secretary of Transportation, while presiding over a supply-chain crisis within our Nation, has proclaimed a goal of achieving ZERO traffic deaths. “Over the next five years, nearly $14 billion in funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will flow to road safety programs, including $6 billion in new competitive grants for complete streets and safer school routes, $4 billion in additional funding for state highway safety improvements and hundreds of millions for behavioral research and interventions.” There will be a shift from blaming crashes on human error, to a strategy shifting to systems surrounding road users. Whatever that means? There was an “. . . 18.4% surge in fatalities in the first half of 2021 – the largest six-month jump on record – with more than 20,000 people killed in vehicle crashes . . .” (Bloomberg CityLab, Laura Bliss, January 27, 2022.) Brace yourself for an explosion of photo radar traps and procedural changes aimed at making driving much more difficult. The only real way to bring traffic deaths to zero is to ban all vehicles, including bikes, skateboards, Segways, and hoverboards, and to rip up every inch of road asphalt and concrete. Why is it that these elites always promise so much, then deliver so little? Do you suppose it is simply incompetence? No, it is combined with, among other agendas, another form of “Wag the Dog”, hoping to distract attention from other mass failures.

This has been a long lead-in to the topic at hand, “WHAT IS THE COST OF TAKING A RISK?” Many have accepted the RISK of believing pompous elites who promise the undeliverable, who fail to deliver the unattainable. Whether it is in the areas of health insurance, the search for the cure of cancer, or solving roadway tragedies, there have been no successful attempts, and the RISK often made has been exchanged for failure and disappointment. We want to view another RISK that has been consuming our Nation over the last two years. While heeding to those we believed were knowledgeable, we have been systematically deprived of many aspects of our FREEDOM and LIBERTY granted to us by our Creator and guaranteed to us by our Constitution and Bill of Rights. The advent of COVID-19, and the current government, social, media, and corporate elites’ response to it, has killed many, shuttered many businesses, and destroyed many livelihoods. Many took the RISK to comply, believing the greater good would result. Now, many are desiring to take a more personal RISK knowing that our personal FREEDOM and LIBERTY are at stake. Some may have seen the following article written by James Stansbury. This is not our normal form of blog, but we need to provide a portion of his article below for you to consider in conjunction with your response to COVID-19 and “WHAT IS THE COST OF TAKING A RISK” for you.

The title of the article is “The COVID Narrative is Falling Apart.” (American Thinker; February 2, 2022.) Concerning masks, vaccinations, and mandates, he continues below: “. . . Why is there so much disagreement? The late Malcolm Muggeridge put it this way ‘People do not believe lies because they have to, but because they want to.’ Think about it; the Left and their media allies have terrified our children and ordinary citizens so much that they desperately want to believe masks and vax mandates are the only answer. Anyone who disagrees must be silenced, socially destroyed or even allowed to die by withholding organ transplants or life-saving therapeutics. I was taught the only way to fight a lie is with the truth. However, I also know those who placed all their hope in the big COVID lie will do whatever it takes to silence anyone who disagrees. Just ask Joe Rogan about being silenced. It is nearly impossible to overcome emotion with facts, but I will present some anyway: 1). ALARMING VAX SIDE EFFECTS REPORTED BY MILITARY WHISTLEBLOWERS. This story made a few waves last week when Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) included a mention in his five-hour Senate hearing. The information came from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED), a mundane accounting tool used to track all medical diagnosis of military personnel and dependents for insurance billing purposes. DMED did better than the CDC’s ineffective Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). Following is a summary of the most alarming vax side effects: *Myocardial infarction (heart attack) – 269% increase, *Cancer diagnoses – 300% increase. Miscarriage – 300% increase. *Bell’s palsy – 291% increase. *Congenital malformations (for children of military personnel) – 156% increase. *Female infertility – 471% increase. *Pulmonary embolisms – 467% increase. *Neurological issues – 1000% increase. 2). ATHLETES ARE MYSTERIOUSLY DYING OF SUDDEN HEART ATTACKS: In Dec. 2021, Lorphic News, a non-traditional news source reported on the extraordinary number of physically fit, fully vaccinated athletes experiencing fatal heart attacks. This claim was systematically denied by most news sources. However, a chart compiled by the Federation Internationale de Football [soccer] Association (FIFA) confirms this is real and like the above military data, is based on a large sample size. FIFA has member athletes from 209 countries and has routinely tracked athlete health data for 20 years. Their long-term data confirms a fivefold increase in sudden cardiac deaths in only six months of 2021. 3). VACCINES NOW HAVE NEGTIVE EFFICACY: Data has surfaced claiming that continued use of the original vax is causing negative efficacy. Negative efficacy doesn’t mean the protection fades. It means the opposite: it means the vaccines are now weakening the immune system. It became clear that countries with the highest vax rates, were the most likely to experience a surge in both cases and deaths. You can monitor five representative countries daily death rates here. Note that India is included because India was the only one to allow the widespread early use of inexpensive therapeutics. Initially their protocol included hydroxychloroquine but when the more deadly delta variant hit they switched to a protocol that included ivermectin. India had far better results than the others in taming COVID. In the above sample, Australia had the most severe police state lockdowns, mask mandates and a high vax rate around 80%. After some initial sucess, it has suddenly gone from near zero cases and deaths to having an explosion in both. Since spring of 2021 Sweden, noted for its minimal mandates, had maintained near zero cases and deaths as a result of achieving herd immunity early. All that changed when for reasons unknown Sweden pushed vaccinations despite the herd immunity achievement. As a result, Sweden’s flat-lined case and death rate also spiked, thus indicting its herd immunity achievement is compromised by vax negative efficacy. 4). OMICRON PROVIDES LONG-LASTING NATURAL IMMUNITY: A peer-reviewed article titled ‘Cross-reactive memory T cells associate with protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection in COVID-19 contacts’ published Jan. 10 in the scientific journal Nature provided a warning and some encouragement: ‘Once widespread infection (such as the Omicron wave) occurs across the world, the virus will eventually circulate endemically, meaning that infections may still happen but with milder symptoms and much less mortality.’ There are two reasons that the transition from pandemic to endemic didn’t happen until Omicron: 1) all the widely used vaccines are based on the spike protein, which doesn’t induce a protective long-lasting T-cell response, and 2) natural immunity wasn’t widespread. In other words, the current vaccines too narrowly target only the original Alpha spike protein and ignore the rest of the virus proteins. This inhibits production of long-lasting memory T-cells that can more readily adapt to new variants and this omission for those most heavily vaccinated appears to have changed omicron from mild to more dangerous. CONCLUSIONS: Considering the dangerous vax side effects described above, it’s time to recognize that COVID is becoming endemic like the closely related common cold or seasonal flu. This means the safest way for the unvaccinated to produce the necessary long-lasting memory T-cells may be by catching omicron. For those facing omicron with an immune system weakened by multiple vaxxes and boosters, age or comorbidities, and emergency use authorization by the FDA for the therapeutics (chiefly ivermectin) India used could be a life saver. However, the political climate today makes FDA authorization unlikely – many hospitals have already allowed patients to die rather than try these proven, safe therapeutics. and last week, effective monoclonal antibody treatments have mysteriously lost their FDA approval. Therefore, it wouldn’t hurt to fortify your immune system with a daily dose of over-the-counter vitamin D3, C, and zinc (all are included in India’s COVID kit). Around 80 to 85 percent of people who died from COVID were deficient in these vitamins and the most vulnerable are senior citizens and the obese (because fat cells absorb vitamin D before it can reach where needed). I’m no doctor so ask yours for dose rates since each can vary widely by weight, age, etc. We are still on our own for an early treatment option so it may be better [to] contact an organization of rebel doctors like the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC). U.K. PM Boris Johnson did the right thing by ending all vax and mask mandates and let nature take its course. (The Remnant features an excellent analysis of the politics behind the COVID tyranny.) Denmark has just followed his lead. Will 50,000 fearless Canadian truckers succeed in bringing a strong enough emotion to Canada or the U.S. to end the mandates?”

So, now knowing many other facts that have been hidden from view by the cancel culture, and those profiting by pushing their own agendas, what kind of RISK are you willing to take? Do you want to follow those who will make any empty promises to get their way, or tell you things you would like to believe, even though you know their histories, and now know more of the facts? Will you seriously consider “WHAT IS THE COST OF TAKING A RISK? One direction can lead to FREEDOM and LIBERTY; the other direction can kill you or may consume you like the surfer in the picture above.
