Commentary Editor’s note: COVID lockdowns and restrictions for “two weeks to flatten the curve” began two years ago in late March 2020. At the time, many pundits called it a dangerous mistake, one of whom was law professor Bruce Pardy. Two years later, as restrictions finally begin to ease, the federal government and many workplaces…
Back to the Future: ‘Two Weeks to Flatten the Curve’ Was a Dangerous Mistake From the Beginning
The Inflation Disaster Is Collateral Damage From Lockdowns
Commentary The outrageous prices at the grocery store and gas stations—the highest ever recorded and increasing at rates too fast to calculate with precision—are yet more collateral damage from the initial lockdowns two years ago.

How Public Opinion Ended Covid, and Started the Next Thing
Commentary Anew poll publicized on Fox News reports that “Most Americans back Russian oil sanctions, even with soaring gas prices.” The incredible number is 77 percent.
