troubledThe semi-open posts  I've hosted here on the Covid-19 narrative, the inadequately tested experimental drugs for it, and the whole cascading mess surrounding them have continued to field a huge number of comments, so I'm opening another space for discussion. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 

3. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion. 

$75mn is peanuts

I used to work for a forensic economist in the late 1990s. $10,000 doesn't even come close to compensating a family for the death of a member--think about it this way; that person would have earned, on average, almost 5 times that in a single year.

The average award in court for a wrongful death of a laborer in the prime of life (30s or 40s) was close to a million dollars. It would be significantly more now.

Even in Canada, which may not use quite the same system of compensation as the US, $75 million is nothing. I'm pretty sure they're expecting very, very few people to successfully prove a death or injury was vaccine related.

The program says it's only for burial costs though...

Oh, you’re right. It’s not compensation for wrongful death at all, just burial expenses. The quotes in the story are strangely blasé, “it’s a drug and there are always risks, it’s not our fault.”

Very disturbing.
