America will not tolerate another lockdown. Period

Sure, there is a lot of fear out there right now in GOP/MAGA/Conservative circles that mask mandates and fullout COVID lockdowns are going to make a comeback.

Indeed, COVID-19 numbers are back up once again, and many colleagues of mine have been coming down with the virus – some of them 4 and 5 times now since the start of 2020.

But let us be clear: There is no way that America will go through a lockdown like we had in 2020 or even state or local lockdowns. The reason is straightforward in that America can’t afford it, and the damage done economically from the last lockdowns was so severe we still aren’t over the aftereffects.
