Colorado Governor Calls Special Session to Fix Economy He Ruined

It will be eleven full days of stricter, more crippling economic restrictions before the Colorado General Assembly will meet to figure out how to use the power of big state government to clean up the mess that big state government is making.

Rather than seeking to understand the true nature of the spike in coronavirus “cases” and “hospitalizations,” the Colorado state government is stuck in March, using their long-discredited UC Health model – which expected 80,000 Colorado deaths by January – to force Coloradoans into finishing off what is left of Colorado small businesses – adding to the hundreds of restaurants the state government has already driven out of business.

The Colorado coronavirus model is unfalsifiable. It cannot be proven wrong, because it assumes inputs from outputs. It works like this: if case numbers rise, the model reveals that we are not following the orders of our overlords. If cases fall, it reveals that we are being good little boys and girls and doing what we’re told. Combined with the pseudoscientific status dial (which recently went from five levels to six with the addition of super-duper purple), Colorado government officials have set up a “heads I win, tails you lose” scenario where success is credited to them and failure is blamed on Colorado citizens.

Now the state government will convene to figure out how to give the taxpayer’s money back to them after their policies have forced hundreds of Colorado businesses to close and hundreds of thousands of Coloradoans to lose their jobs. Lest we forget, states like South Dakota, Arkansas, and Iowa did not lock down their economies yet have experienced virtually identical coronavirus results to Colorado.

This stupidity, power-grabbing, and criminal incompetence must not go unpunished. The citizens of Colorado must make these central-planning fools pay in 2022, starting with defeating Jared Polis’ reelection bid.
