People only die from the pneumonia instigated by swine flu, but then pneumonia is a treatable condition with modern medicine and not very scary, so go with swine flu. Its the flu but with pigs…. scary.

They/we truly are sheeple.

In 2006 in response to concerns over the Avian Flu, the Centers for Disease Control put candid planning guides on the web for 8 critical components of our society: schools/universities, households, churches, etc., for preparing for a Pandemic Flu.

That led to an enlightened job experience for me, in a Buddhist-like ‘Life’s A B#tch And Then U Get Resurrected” kind of way.
Though I had no medical background, my project management skills caused me to get selected to co-lead development of our institution’s Pandemic Flu plan.

The small team discovered that our on-site, local and regional medical and health services infrastructure would be overwhelmed and would collapse in a timeframe far quicker than laymen intuition would signal.
Just as psychologically numbing was the realization that sending people home was not an option because the first critical key step/directive given to government is to Stop All Mobility within the society; mobility spreads disease. Therefore launching Barriers to Mobility are the 1st govt step in battling pandemics. People must be kept in place.
Many of our leaders were shocked to learn that they would have to keep all workers, families and student on-site and deal with all the issues of health services, food delivery, waste removal and hygiene/sanitation.
So they dismissed oral findings that the local medical infrastructure would collapse.
So I developed a spreadsheet using the infection, disability and death rates provided by the CDC and applied them to our small metro area. The projections were devastating to the psyche.
The response from local leaders? Our local leaders ignored the CDC planning guides and concluded it was better to not think about such things.

That was my moment of Enlightenment. I think that 2006 lesson on the tremendous power of ‘human denial’…makes it easier for me to understand, if not anticipate, the complacency and lack of mass public inquiry and outcry on the PPIP, TARP, and assorted guaranty and bail-out boondoggles inherited by Team Obama from Team Bush, and in some cases, taken to the next extreme level. I am dismayed but not shocked or surprise by Team Obama’s own ‘still unreported’ internal battles over denial of the implications of this shape-shifting financial crises.
