Not too long ago I officially declared swine flu a fiasco. And while I did get some hate mail suggesting this meant I didn't care about those who did actually die from the disease, most agreed it was indeed a fiasco. In fact, at this point the agreement out there on just how mild it was is so widespread that anyone suggesting otherwise has not only drunk the Kool Aid but is mixing up batches of their own. 

Nevertheless, I'll continue to post updates on swine flu happenings since Walgreens, CVS and a host of other doc in the boxes are now trying to unload their stockpiles of vaccines that finally arrived AFTER the worst was over. Interesting to me that these for profit companies can charge people for the vaccines considering that our tax doallrs paid for them to begin with - I suppose its a needle sticking fee?

Yes, from a governmental bailout of vaccine production and distribution to the dissolution of personal autonomy brought on by changes in federal and state laws - it is quite shocking and quite encouraging how people both functioned as automatons on the one hand and resisted the government and pharmaceutical propaganda on the other.

But we'll see. Flu season is not over and there's always next year - and with a re-tooled and re-energized vaccination industry.

As always I look forward to your feedback, comments and suggestions.
