I guess we should take this as some form of Holidays-infused “progress“. However, it would have been nice… if he and John had told the truth earlier. Much earlier.

Here at the end of 2020, he finally admits that he isn’t writing about it much any longer — because (wait for it!) it’s “depressing“:

“…Any way you slice them, the numbers, both in the U.S. and worldwide, are depressing. I suppose this is the main reason why I stopped writing regularly about them….”

The level of self-absorbed myopia it takes to make the above statement, while at the same time never apologizing for being dead wrong about his “we should have followed the Swedish model…” nonsense… is truly disheartening — from what is supposed to be a responsible adult, in the room.

But I guess… I expect too much, when I expect humility — coupled to some level of intelligence.

But to a fault, humility has never been a virtue exhibited by either Paul or John.

Ah, so it goes… now off to get some fresh lemonade, that I’ve squeezed from my own small orchard of lemon trees, this day — here. Smile….
