My attention span is very low and to answer the OPS question, "Is the cure better than the problem"
I read the first few pages, but he's right to ask whether curtailing the entire world to save a few, versus the economic impacts and who would die is a very basic admirable question.
This is then followed up with, what cost is a Human Life! My god how could you place a value, on human life versus money, is somebody worth $$$$$ or less in another country $$$$?
Then a whole load of scientific crap versus some Brexit crap versus some numerical arguments that IT / Autistic people like to throw up.
Personally, the longer I go on, the longer I live, the less I care. This is all a fukcing game of mathematics, of chance, of impossibility. One defunct boredom to another. So I'm going with this theory. Elon Musk: The chance we are not living in a computer simulation is 'one in billions' | The Independent
