Is public policy not informed by evidence in relevant fields?

Sure, but you don't let military commanders decide who we need to go to war with do we? We don't let military commanders decide what the budget is going to be for their use do we?

Because if you leave it up to people like that, all they know is more, more, more. Oh we could have the best soldiers in the world, if we start training them at birth and put all our resources towards that 1 goal without regard to everything else in life.

What's your personal conspiracy theory for why Fauci is a full-of-shite con man instead of a public servant attempting to do his job to the best of his ability?

Does he or his family has business ties to remdesivir or a potential vaccine?

Did he collaborate with the WHO to cover up information in China for some unspecified, nefarious reason?

Is he politically motivated in making Trump look bad despite serving under three past Republican administrations?

I reject the comparison between social distancing guidelines and stay-at-home mandates and war

And you in your little comparison here. Fauci would be one of the top mechanics in the US so you should prob listen to him when he says your car needs $1500 worth of repairs.

Again. My experience, facts, and reason tell me otherwise and I've never been proven wrong. The sheep like you are how they get away with it.

Another anecdotal story. Never had a cavity growing up. Went off my parents insurance stopped going to the dentist for like 3 years. Went back one day, told me I had 12 cavities. Lol right. Didn't go back for two my years. Went in they said I had 3 cavities.

Been telling me for almost 30 years if I don't get my wisdom teeth out I'm gonna be in big trouble lol.

Point being "experts" are often full of shite when they stand to profit and it's remarkable people don't see it.

So basically you have no evidence, no idea, and really no thought on the matter of how he is gaining anything from this.

It's either some form of alternative motivation or he's a moron/liar. We've rejected the notion that he's a moron so there's only one alternative.

Do we? Can you provide some context so I can educate myself? Maybe some shred of evidence other than the thoughts bouncing in the air between your ears.

I'm sorry, your interest in this thread made me believe you had been following along the last couple of months.

So what are these motives of his? What is he gaining?

What if you car really needs $1,500 and instead of listening you call him a crook and leave?

---

So you just go around paying mechanics because of "what if"?

Personally I would look at what they were talking about to decide on my own if it's needed.

This actually has happened many times. I got my oil changed about a year or so ago. They are like "You need a new air filter". My response - I just replaced that one less than 10,000 miles ago.

I've needed new brakes for 2 years now according to some of these places. Yeah I know they are getting a little low and I expect they'll need to be replaced in the next year(finally).

Do you think I trusted him on the other things he claimed needed to be done? Or do you think they were just hoping I didn't know anything about cars and wanted to prey on me using their "expertise"

I might trust Fauci more if he wasn't one of the people pushing out false numbers. When these high mortality rates were being pushed by the media, why wasn't this expert pointing out that the real number was much lower?

He already has a history of supporting and pushing out policies based on false information. False information that he should have known was false and corrected.

For me, that's like my air filter. If I know that part is bullshite, why would I trust the source beyond that?

I thought the same thing as a teenager and then my wisdom teeth started to crown and I was in a lot of pain. So your anecdotal evidence is just that.

I still have my wisdom teeth.

Although I was never told they needed to be removed, I do know most everyone is told they do.

maybe he loves attention, maybe he stands to profit financially

Maybe he's not the person you need to be asking these questions about.

Limited experiences are not scientific evidence.

You absolutely were comparing them in the sense that you were suggesting that they're similar in that "experts" shouldn't dictate public policy in both respects

But there's a reason why our government's war powers are very clearly laid out and why our government's ability to issue public health recommendations aren't
