Hoodwinked by Charlatans

I was born in the wagon of a traveling show
My momma used to dance for the money they'd throw
Papa would do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel
Sell a couple bottles of Dr Good
--Cher

In times of crisis, charlatans come out of the woodwork. In the 1930s, economic charlatans led by John Maynard Keynes bent the ears of policymakers worldwide pushing easy money policies to politicians desperate to win votes in difficult times.

This time around, charlatans of 'public health' are taking center stage. Fauci, Birx, Ferguson and other so-called health 'experts' have captured control of policymaking pulpits worldwide to sell their brand of snake oil to the gullible.

Being played is always costly. But never in history has getting hoodwinked by charlatans fetched such a large bill so quickly.
