    Public health is worthless.

    The next time you could actually have a contagion that could be controlled by government force and everybody is going to ignore them.

    Have they done a complete colonoscopy on why they lied so much about the shot controlling the spread? It didn't control the spread at all. Shouldn't people be in jail for this?

    The other day I looked at the warnings at the gas pump while putting a big chunk of my wallet in my gas tank. One of the requirements is that you have to be a licensed driver to operate the pump. I don't know if that's a state law or federal but one more crazy mandate out there.

    My wife let our daughter help her pump gas a few weeks ago. She's eleven and wanted to help. Now I know that we were wrong. I bet a lot of Rob's neighbors don't have driver licenses. They can't pump gas either. Who is this protecting?
