About this book

"You just want people to die!"That's the intellectually stimulating response you get when you question the wisdom of shutting society down.In fact, the consequences of the lockdowns are so devastating and far-reaching that all decent and humane people must reject the whole strategy.In this free eBook, New York Times bestselling author Tom Woods sets the record straight, and leaves the case for the lockdowns in tatters.source: WrongAboutLockdown.com===If you prefer to resume living a normal life, or not see everything you’ve spent decades building destroyed in a matter of months, or want your children not to waste away in a world of computer screens and “virtual playdates,” you must want to kill people’s grandmothers. This is how discourse is actually being carried on in the United States right now.Then I noticed that good news from around the world was greeted almost angrily. I have never seen anything like this. It’s as if some people need the virus to be an apocalyptic problem. Like most people, I am all for taking reasonable precautions and keeping an eye on the virus. And we can discuss which methods more effectively preserve biological life. But is mere biological life worth living? This is not a question the “experts” are qualified to answer. If people’s hopes, dreams, and aspirations are all dashed for an indefinite period of time, which purveyors of the present strategy almost flippantly propose, is that really living? “Probably no large gatherings for a long time,” we’ve been told. How long? And what are “large gatherings”? Oh, just concerts, theater, lectures, church, sporting events, the arts in general – pretty much everything that makes life worth living. The kind of “life” all this portends has a pulse, yes, but no soul.
