And what do these sources tell us? Wearing masks is effective in protecting you against the virus. Omicron is more contagious and the air-borne particles are smaller and therefore more transmissible but even so, masks offer protection. If these studies reach these conclusions then masks must be far more effective in confined spaces.
I know you won't trust these sources Elvis. Afterall there isn't a podcaster or blogger among them.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2689107]Let's see if we can work out a little compare and contrast exercise for you here:
GW Bush came into office during booming economic conditions and historic budget surpluses that he giddily proclaimed in his first full month in office that we didn't even need so he was going to give fat cats in the top marginal brackets a refund. Remember?
Good time to make a grand, self-serving political gesture to "get" bad bankers for past transgressions. BTW, those Enron prosecutions were a waste of time and money since the convictions were overturned by the Repub majority SCOTUS. But, what the hell, we had all that time and money in the world to waste thanks to that booming Clinton economic hand off to GW Bush anyway, right? Banks and bankers? Who needs them? Prosecute!
By stark contrast and comparison, what was happening in the GW Bush economy at the hand off to Obama? Ah, I'll bet even you know what the totally logical argument to follow would be for why Obama did not spend the next years chasing down and prosecuting banks and bankers when what the country needed more than revenge and a self-serving political gesture that would for sure take years, might not get even one conviction and had the same Repub SCOTUS waiting in the wings to overturn such things was to get our money back. And as soon as fucking possible. Followed by as many years of stability and certainty as every monetary, commerce and capitalist society and system needed to survive and thrive except even more so this time.[/QUOTE]Our Lord and Savior is coming back in 2024 to save western civ!

In maybe 4 to 5 years, EV sales could dominate the US like they did in March Norway
Continuing its leadership of the world's transition to electric vehicles, Norway registered a new record in electric car sales in March and is well on its way to achieving 100% electric car sales by 2025.
Leading the charge by a metaphorical mile in March was Tesla, where the Model why claimed 20% of the Norway market followed by the Model 3 which claimed 10%.
A total of 13,983 new battery-electric passenger vehicles in March, corresponding to a breathtakingly impressive 86.1% of all new passenger vehicles registered in the month. Including plug-in hybrid vehicles, the market saw a nearly 92% uptake of electrified transport.
According to numbers published by Norway's Road Traffic Information Council, a total of 16,238 new passenger vehicles were registered in March, a marginal increase on March of 2021.
But the most important numbers were the number of new zero-emission passenger vehicles which would appear to refer strictly to battery electric vehicles, considering that OFV singles out new rechargeable hybrid passenger cars as two separate classes of vehicle, rechargeable and non-rechargeable.
While there were only 1,387 of both types of hybrids, the number of zero-emission passenger cars registered in March reached 13,983.
Accounting for 86.1% of all new vehicles registered in March, new battery electric vehicles (BEVs) grew 62% over the same month only a year earlier.
Norway saw similarly stunning numbers in January, when BEVs accounted for 83.7% of all new cars registered that month, with a total of 6,659.
The first three months of 2022 have seen a total of 26,803 new BEVs, an increase of nearly 40% over the same quarter a year earlier.
Unsurprisingly, and following a nearly global trend, Tesla secured the largest share of new vehicles registered in March, with 5,002 models registered accounting for 30.8% of all new vehicles.
By model, the Tesla Model why saw a total of 3,305 new models registered, while 1,696 Tesla Model 3's were registered, accounting for 20.4% and 10.4% respectively.
Ev sales March 2022.

German automaker Volkswagen was second with 1,498, with its electric ID. 4 leading the way with 1,111 models registered. Third was Audi, with 1,069 models registered, with 667 Q4 e-tron's registered.
The fifth best-selling model in Norway was also an electric, with 591 Hyundai Ioniq 5's registered through March.
In fact, all of the top 10 vehicles were electric vehicles, further highlighting their dominance in Norway, with the 6-10th vehicles for March in Norway being the BMW iX, Polestar 2, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Audi e-tron, and Skoda Enyaq.
Great America The Ruling Class' Pantheon of Lies Barack Obama doesn't want to prevent

The Ruling Class' Pantheon of Lies.
Barack Obama doesn't want to prevent the flooding of the public square with raw sewage. He wants the exclusive ability to flood the public square with sewage and prevent its cleanup.
By Drew Allen.
April 25,2022.
Barack Obama recently took to the stage at Stanford University to lecture an audience on the perils of disinformation. But it was Obama himself who used the occasion to spread lies and misinformation.
This shouldn't come as any surprise. In 2013, PolitiFact awarded Obama its Lie of the Year award for repeatedly promising the American people that "if you like your health care plan, you can keep it. " Obama made this false claim repeatedly as he promoted his signature piece of legislation: the "Affordable Care Act."
After its passage, millions of Americans were sent cancellation letters from their insurance companies.
Nonetheless, Obama, the decorated 2013 liar of the year, stood behind the podium at Stanford and admonished, "You just have to flood a country's public square with enough raw sewage. You just have to raise enough questions, spread enough dirt, plant enough conspiracy theorizing, that citizens no longer know what to believe."
Obama was right, except that it's Democrats like himself who have flooded our country's public square with raw sewage. Just a few recent additions to the American ruling class' pantheon of lies include Trump-Russia collusion, Trump quid pro quo, Trump incited an insurrection, the vaccines prevent the contraction and spread of COVID-19, and the Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinformation.
Notably, while Obama railed against the planting of "conspiracy theorizing," in his speech, he continued to peddle the debunked Democrat conspiracy theory of Trump-Russia collusion himself.
"No one in my administration was surprised that Russia was attempting to meddle in our election," Obama said in reference to the 2016 election.
Not only did the two-year, $32 million taxpayer-funded Mueller witch-hunt determine that there was no Trump-Russia collusion, but the ongoing Durham investigation has revealed that the Clinton campaign invented the conspiracy theory, funded its development, and colluded with countless Democrats, members of the intelligence community, and the media to flood the public square with that raw sewage.
Obama's concern is not that American citizens "no longer know what to believe," as he claimed, but rather that American citizens no longer believe pathological liars like himself, other Democrats, and the propagandist media, which Obama and the Democratic Party rely upon to spread their dirt and conspiracy theories.
Obama is deathly afraid that Americans may believe something that Obama and the Democrats don't want them to believe—such as the Hunter Biden laptop scandal.
Sixteen percent of Biden voters would have voted differently had the media and Big Tech not suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop scandal.
Interestingly enough, Obama took aim at these very tech companies, which censored the Hunter Biden laptop story, in his Stanford speech. "These companies need to have some other north star other than just making money and increasing market share," Obama said.
The "north star" to which Obama wants these tech companies to look is censorship. Yet Twitter, one of the companies at which Obama aimed, actually does value censorship over profit. Before reversing course on Monday, Twitter's board of directors vowed to take a "poison pill" rather than accept Elon Musk's $43 billion cash offer to buy the social media platform. Musk's offer valued Twitter's stock at $54.20 a share; a 38 percent premium to Twitter's stock value before Musk disclosed his 9 percent stake.
The fact that companies like Twitter are "making money" isn't what really upsets Obama, but rather the prospect of a free speech advocate like Musk—who has both the money and the willingness to use it in this way—purchasing a leftist, activist communications platform and neutralizing its use as a censorship tool of the ruling class.
Had Jeff Bezos, rather than Elon Musk, announced his intention to purchase Twitter, Obama would have been thrilled.
But Obama and other Democrats know their rapidly diminishing political power depends upon their control of media narratives. Now that billionaires like Musk and others are looking to interrupt their monopoly, Obama wants the government to regulate them.
The Left's outrage at Musk's attempt to free one Big Tech company (not even the biggest) from the Democrats' chains of censorship is really a manifestation of their growing frustration that any platform or individual be allowed to question, challenge, or expose their agenda.
While Obama attacked Big Tech in his Stanford speech, he was really attacking every American who dares question and confront the Left's lies—from Joe Rogan with his audience of millions to me, with a podcast audience of thousands.
"One of the biggest reasons for the weakening of democracy is the profound change that's taken place in how we communicate and consume information," Obama said.
What Obama meant was that one of the biggest reasons for the weakening of the Democratic Party has been the proliferation of free speech and alternative media sources.
Americans are no longer congregating in the Left's pantheon of lies. Instead, they are seeking refuge in the abundant pantheons of truth.
While new, heavily funded "mainstream" media services like CNN+ fail, alternative, right-wing podcasts with no funding like mine are flourishing.
Would-be totalitarians like Obama don't want to prevent the flooding of the public square with raw sewage. They want the exclusive ability to flood the public square with sewage and prevent its cleanup.
The USA is in a Golden Age for workers
Thank you, Joe, Nancy, Chuck, the Dems and everyone who voted for them.

[QUOTE]A year since the U.S. began seeing record turnover, exhausted recruiters are putting everything on the table.
The recovering pandemic economy has proven to be a job-seekers market, with nearly 48 million people quitting a job last year and 76 million taking a new one. Still, the labor market currently has 11 million openings, according to recent Labor Statistics data, and roughly two jobs for every person looking for one. [/QUOTE]Guaranteed, this has never happened under Republican Party stewardship or economic legislation results. But it has happened several times under Democratic Party stewardship and economic legislation results, including right now.
BTW, how are things going for the Republican Party's preferred, envied and aspired to emulate government and economic systems and stewardship in Russia and China?

The employers were the ones who "didn't like" the previous policies they held and much preferred what was on offer through the ACA. Too subtle for most wingers, I know.
Second, if your lord and savior Trump and his Repub House and Repub Senate didn't like the Affordable Care Act / Obamacare, they had two years of golfing to repeal it and replace it with "something terrific", repeal and replace it with something shitty or repeal it and replace it with nothing at all and leave the massively expensive policy to prevail of giving any and all medical treatment to anyone and everyone, insured or not, paid for or free, USA citizen or not, legal or illegal immigrant in our hospital emergency rooms as was signed into law by Ronald Reagan in 1986.
But they didn't.
Hunter Biden's laptop? Lolol. That and everything that followed is classic, thoroughly debunked winger nonsense.
