Takeaways
The pandemic response highlighted the need for a new citizen movement that rejects authoritarianism and compulsion.
Tech surveillance and censorship have been institutionalized, and the mass media has performed poorly during the pandemic.
The Federal Reserve played a crucial role in the pandemic response, and the push for a central bank digital currency raises concerns about a China-style social credit system.
The pandemic response was a boon for big business and a disaster for small business, highlighting the need for regulatory and litigation reform.
The deep state and regulatory capture have become pervasive, and public health measures neglected overall health and well-being.
The pandemic response disrupted educational institutions and highlighted the need for alternative approaches to education.
The trauma of the pandemic has shattered lives and communities, and the history of the response needs to be examined to prevent similar mistakes in the future.
The use of force as a policy tool during the pandemic raises concerns about the erosion of individual freedoms.
