RFK Jr. is now running the Department of Health and Human Services. So we sat down with journalist and Conspirituality co-host Derek Beres to get an idea about how long it will take for Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) agenda to revive the black plague. We chat about why Beres argues that Kennedy's wellness-sounding platform masks an exclusionary health vision which amounts to “soft eugenics,” RFK Jr's endorsement of the MMR vaccine and how this angered his followers, harmful narratives about autism which will probably be endorsed by the federal government, and how the MAHA Commission's AI-generated report doesn't seriously address health problems facing children.

We stood up the largest free vaccination program in our country's history – mobilizing 90,000 vaccination locations, standing up dozens of federally-run mass vaccination sites with the ability to administer more than a combined 125,000 shots a day, and deploying over 9,000 federal personnel to support vaccinations nationwide – including over 5,000 active duty troops. As a result, today, the vast majority of Americans have the protection of a vaccine – with 215 million Americans fully vaccinated, and an estimated two-thirds of eligible adults having received their booster shot. Vaccinated and boosted people are 41 times less like to die of COVID-19 than unvaccinated individuals. And America's unprecedented vaccination campaign has saved lives: a December 2021 estimate suggested that vaccines saved over 1 million American lives and successfully prevented over 10 million hospitalizations. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10487943/Conspiracy Theories, Trust in Science, and Knowledge during the Third Wave of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Cyprushttps://www.newsweek.com/14-percent-americans-have-ended-friendships-over-vaccination-stance-study-162860714 Percent of Vaccinated Americans Have Ended Friendships Over Vaccination Stance: Studyhttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-10004179/Can-friends-anti-vaxxer.htmlMy best friend Sarah refuses to be jabbed against Covid-19 claiming healthy eating and exercise will keep her safe from the killer disease.

Since its enactment in March 2020, emergency spending expanded healthcare coverage to some 15 million people who will now be disenrolled, and increased food stamp benefits, and post-partum coverage in many states. Poor parents will be taking a hit — but Guaranteed Income could be the solution. The Magnolia Mothers Trust in Jackson, Mississippi is the first in the country to provide Guaranteed Income of $1000 monthly to low-income families headed by a Black woman living in affordable housing. Joining Laura for this Mother's Day special are Aisha Nyandoro who leads this program as the CEO of Springboard Opportunities, a nonprofit organization working with residents in affordable housing to help them reach their goals; Anquoindria Moore, a mother of three was a recipient of this cash relief from Magnolia Mothers and Dorian Warren, the Co-President of Community Change, that  focuses on building the power of people most impacted by injustice. How does cash relief reduce poverty, and increase equity and security for families?

The Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) has today launched a fully revised and updated Catalogue of National Health and Social Care Data Collections in Ireland. National data collections collect health and social care information and are crucial in providing a national overview of an identified health or social care-related issue or service in Ireland. HIQA's catalogue presents an overview of the large volume of data currently being gathered by national health and social care data collections in Ireland in one accessible location. The catalogue includes 128 national data collections which collect health or social care information in Ireland, including 24 newly identified collections since the previous version in 2017. This includes a number of new national data collections that were established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic such as CoVAX – the National COVID-19 Immunisation System, and the COVID-19 Data Research Hub. Barbara Foley, HIQA's Health Information Manager Quality, said: “The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of high-quality data and information in order to drive improvements in public health. Access to and use of good quality information leads to safe, reliable health and social care. It is therefore essential that health information is accessible, promoted and used if we are to achieve a high-standard of healthcare in Ireland. “The publication of this updated version of the catalogue acts as a key resource in providing information on the current health data available. It highlights the changes seen in the healthcare landscape over the past five years, with a number of new collections established since the previous version to collect and trend information around COVID-19. We hope it will used by a range of stakeholders, including healthcare professionals, people using services, researchers, policy-makers, service-users and members of the general public.” Advances in the health information landscape are taking place at both a national and European level which will impact on collections of health information. Work is currently underway for the creation of an EU-wide data sharing platform known as the European Health Data Space, while the Department of Health is developing a Health Information Bill. HIQA believes these advances present an opportunity to shape and improve the health and social care information system. Barbara Foley continued: “The delivery of Ireland's health and social care services must be underpinned by a robust approach to data collection, analysis and management. With the growing number of data collections, people should be assured that their information is being collected, used and shared in a secure way, and that the data collected is of good quality. As outlined in HIQA's recently published paper on Key considerations to inform policy for the collection, use and sharing of health and social care information in Ireland, there needs to be national coordination of these existing data sources in line with international best practice.” The catalogue can be found as both a downloadable report and as an interactive online version on www.hiqa.ie here.

My mother had Alzheimer's from a traumatic brain injury. We were both locked out of their long term care facilities and our mothers died alone. Christina's story is so heartbreaking because she had so little communication from the assisted living facility where her mother was.

This month on the podcast we speak with Dr Mya Cubitt. Mya is an Emergency Physician whose clinical emergency work extends across the public and private emergency care sector in Victoria, Australia. However, like with many of our guests, Mya has several roles that extend beyond the clinical floor. Mya is also the Victorian Faculty Chair of ACEM, contributes to the delivery of emergency care at a state level through Safer Care Victoria and has sat on many reference groups through ACEM including the National COVID-19 task force, Health System Reform Committee, Discrimination Bullying and Sexual Harassment Working Group, New Fellows Reference Group, as well as Trauma and Geriatric Special Interest Groups.During our chat (recorded an embarrassingly long time ago) Mya talks about her very fascinating "peripatetic" medical journey from a focus on paediatrics to adult emergency care and a genuine enthusiasm for improving the care of older people in the ED. We discuss the "boxes" we put various patient groups into and how we can bring together our healthcare teams to improve the care we provide. We also cover a lot of ground on matters that affect our workforce, patients and healthcare system more broadly.While my fellow podcaster John Thompson works regularly on the ED floor with Mya, I have not. My interactions with Mya have been limited to various emergency care groups, but I have a very strong sense that she is 'one of those' consultants that brightens your day when you know she's on shift. I think you will agree that Mya is just the type of thoughtful, kind and inspiring leader that emergency care needs, and we hope you enjoy or chat as much as we did.

Then I interview Enoch about his presentation and we dig into the arguments he raises. Along the way, we discuss the degree to which the Old Testament laws encouraged redistribution and capital accumulation, and the connection to education in our modern economy. Enoch Hill is an associate professor of economics at Wheaton College, where he specializes in macroeconomics. He also serves as the secretary for the Association of Christian Economists, and one of the lead researchers behind the National Covid-19 Church Attendance Project (https://churchattendanceproject.org/). Talking about economic justice requires some care and precision, particularly in a politically polarized time in history, and so I think it is important for economists to have conversations in which we bring our best work forward and think about what justice looks like in economic life.

National Covid Economic Collapse and the Collapse of the U. S. Dollar.

The Collapse of the U. S. Dollar. Section 5. Trump's Economic Goals for Economic Growth.  The full audio and text of this podcast is available for free, for one week. The entire historical archive of all CLP podcasts is available for an annual subscription of $30. Introduction: How The Covid Political Public Relations Panic Damaged the U. S. Economy. Our podcast extends the analysis of Angelo Codevilla about the economic effect of Trump's initial March 15, 2020,  “15 days to stop the spread,” decision  to shut the U. S. economy down, and his subsequent decision to shut the nation's economy down for an additional 30 days, on March 30, 2020. In his article, “Is the President Forgetting Politics 101?” Codevilla combines a political analysis with an economic analysis in order to describe President Trump's decision to shut the U. S. economy down. Codevilla's analysis begins with the identification of an American “ruling class” that is at war with President Trump's effort to defend the sovereign national economic interest.  The ruling class wants globalism, not Trump's economic nationalism.  Codevilla writes,  “The ruling class savors the grip on us that it has achieved during the past three weeks—above all the presumption that we must quietly accept non-legal decrees from on high. It will not give up that grip without a fight. President Trump has placed himself on a path that leads to political suicide. He did this by surrendering to the ruling class—Drs. Anthony Fauci, Deborah Birx, et al, not to mention House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, his judgment on whether and for how long, the country should be shut down.”  We extend Codevilla's analysis of the ruling class to include their motivation to damage Trump, politically. Trump had been having campaign rallies where he touted the stock market and economic growth as benefitting working class Americans. It was imperative for the political forces who hate Trump to take those two issues away from him. TABLE B-56. Common stock prices and yields, 2000-2019  The Dow Jones increased from 24,719, in 2017, to 28,538, at the end of 2019. The GDP was increasing at an average annual growth rate of 3%.  TABLE 8-9. Real gross domestic product by industry, value added, and percent changes, 1997-2018  After the ruling class unleashed the fear panic, the Dow Jones dropped to a low around 18,000, and GDP is expected to decline about 35% by the end of 2020. The ruling class used the public relaltions panic of Covid to destroy Trump's two main political issues, and the damage to the economy, via shutting the economy down, was collateral damage to their main goal of damaging Trump. As Bill Gates also suggested, banning large public gatherings, such as Trump rallies, may also be a good idea to stop the spread and flatten the curve. Prior to the Covid panic, the ruling class had already damaged the economic structure of America with its political promotion of disastrous trade deals.  The trade deals caused the American economy to bifurcate into a component of big companies that benefit from global trade, and the rest of the economy that is not connected to global markets.  After the economy split into two parts, the labor market shifted from a diversified job structure to a job structure where 80% of all jobs were in the service sector.  The ruling class had soothingly murmured, in 1992, that the loss of U. S. manufacturing jobs would be replaced by high-paying, stable jobs in the service sector, commonly called the gig economy.  That was a lie, on the same order of magnitude as the lies of the Bill Gates-funded IHME model that Trump relied upon to shut the economy down.  The shift to a service sector economy left the labor market and economy much weaker to recover from an economic collapse because the service sector does not generate the same level of income and employment multipliers as manufacturing.  For example, in order to produce a dollar of output, each of the six service sectors requires about 3cents from the manufacturing sector. The economy, after the trade deals, was entirely dependent on consumer spending, much of which was spent on cheap Chinese imports.  Every dollar of consumer spending delivered to the finished goods, final demand market in services, like bars and retail shops, generates an additional 15 cents in indirect income in other sectors.  The consumer spending services part of the economy became disconnected from the manufacturing economy because manufacturing was now in China.  In order to produce a dollar of output, the manufacturing sector requires 34 cents from its own supply chain and only about 9 cents from the 6 service sectors.  Every dollar of output delivered by manufacturing to the final demand markets creates about $2 worth of indirect income benefits, and an additional 50 cents in induced, or third round benefits.  Bureau of Economic Analysis Commodity-by Industry Direct Requirements, After Redefinitions (in producers' prices)  The transition to the services sector, as a result of trade with China, weakened the U.S. economy because services are not well integrated into the rest of the economy, and have very few income multiplier linkages with manufacturing.  The national economy is weak because 70% of all GDP is in the services sector, and about 80% of all jobs are in the services sector.  Even if the economy is opened back up, the economic structure is already too weak to transmit employment and income multipliers throughout the gig economy.  Large global corporations, and the ruling class, will not suffer to the same extent as the gig economy because the global corporations still have their global interindustry supply chains to transmit economic growth to that part of the economy.  In other words, as a result of the bifurcation, about 100% of all future  GDP will be related to the 30% of the economy that is connected to the global market.  The U. S. economy, and the social structure, will look just like the European economy and social structure, with large corporations conducting business as usual, and the rest of society making a living cutting each other's hair and painting each other's toenails.  The reason that Kudlow and Navarro are wrong about the U. S. economy “bouncing back,” whenever Trump gets around to opening the economy back up is that the economic structure of the American economy was already damaged by the trade deals, and the gig service sector does not have interindustry multiplier linkages with the rest of the economy.  Just like Chicago's economy, in the 1980s, the U. S. economy has been “hollowed out” by the trade deals. Trump's Covid economic stimulus, that would have worked in America, prior to 1992, is wasted because the employment and income multipliers are gone.  We argue that this will not be a hockey stick, V-shaped, economic  recovery. The income pathways to distribute income across all social classes no longer exist.  This argument about the economic importance of supply chains and multipliers is similar to the argument about the economic weakness caused by the global corporations moving the biotech and pharma interindustry supply chains to China.  The economic sovereignty of the nation is damaged by having the medical supply chains in China, and the crony capitalists who are responsible for moving the supply chains to China are the same forces that are undermining Trump's Presidency.  It will take years to rebuild the national economic interindustry linkages, even if Trump is successful in compelling the companies to move manufacturing production back to the U. S.  The structural weakness of the service sector in generating economic growth is made even more damaging because the service sector does not generate technological innovation.  Almost 75% of all future economic growth is caused by technological innovation, not productivity improvements.  And, that technological economic growth is caused by private business capital investments in new technology ventures, not increased government spending.  Trump's massive new government spending stimulates fleeting, transitory, increases in consumer consumption, but does not increase private sector investment in technology innovation.  The ruling class has been successful in consolidating technology innovation in a  big business-university closed loop of research, where the benefits of innovation are tightly controlled by the global companies.  In the same way that the Covid stimulus is wasted because the economic structure has been damaged, the large corporations direct the benefits of innovation to themselves, and not to the broader domestic economy.  In other words, the global corporations, and the ruling class, benefit from this closed innovation platform, while the rest of the American society suffers.  This is one explanation of why Gates and Fauci want a university-corporate research based vaccine to deal with Covid, and are not interested in promoting the existing malaria drug to treat the disease. Gates and Fauci are globalists, intent on protecting globalism, not Trump's national economic sovereignty. That unelected big business power over technology innovation is not going to bounce back, when Trump finally decides to open up the economy.  As both Codevilla, and Rush Limbaugh have noted, the only person that can peel away Trump voters from Trump, is Trump.  Trump is on the verge of going from being a great President to being the world's greatest magician, who made the greatest economy, in history, disappear in 60 days.  I am Laurie Thomas Vass, and this is the copyrighted Citizen Liberty Party News Network podcast for April 13, 2020.
