“We are fast approaching the stage of ultimate inversion: The stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission.” (Ayn Rand)

That was, and still is, the COVID-19 era. Many worse — and far worse — are upon us. Because the precedent has been established … and the resistance almost nonexistent.

The tyrants have noticed. We are there, where Ayn Rand once said we were heading. It’s so, so sad. And unnecessary.
