Abraham Lincoln said”There is nothing as certain as death & taxes” As William Wallace said in the movie Braveheart,” Every man dies, but not Every

man truly lives!” As a broadcaster I see a parallel between The Vietnam War and our current virus. Everyday the media gives us body counts until people have death fatigue. As horrible as losing family and friends in that conflict was, fewer people died in the ten years of the Vietnam conflict, then the one year highway deaths @ 50,000 per year. Half a million highway deaths during the Vietnam years. Are we going to ban cars? Liberals would like to have us crowded on subways, buses, & bicycles. In NY 337,421 got Corona 26,365 died. In Florida 38,328 got Corona 1,600 died. The freedom to drive your own car obviously is a factor in these results. Between 2018-2019, 67,000 people died of the flu. How productive is a daily body count of people with the flu & people who died of the flu? Death is inevitable for all of us, each person must come to terms with where death will take you. Then you can,”truly live.”
