People would have been far better off doing the exact opposite of what the government ordered in relation to these topics.

What confuses me are all these people who trust so readily...It's almost like they have no real understanding about the world they inhabit so they follow whatever authoritative voice makes a promise they like the sound of...For whatever reason. If the person has letters after their name, then all the better; for they are "experts" who cannot be questioned...Particularly if another "expert" points to them...Multiplying experts multiplies veracity!
I think that perhaps the reason the Millennial and Boomer generations hate each other so much, is because they are so much alike in this respect.
