The DOD authorized scientists to spread, “what was thought harmless”, bacteria (Bacillus Globigii ) across US cities and on public transport.
They were trying to simulate a major bioweapons attack on the US.
During one test in 1966, they dropped light bulbs carrying powdered Bacillus Globigii on the New York City subway. They then stalked citizens to measure how the bacteria spread, using a motorized vacuum devise concealed inside a suitcase.
Later research showed that the strain of Bacillus Globigii did pose a risk to people who were already sick or had weak immune systems.
BG infections result mainly from penetrating exposed injuries, surgical procedures, catheters, and intravenous lines. Debilitated health can occur, fever is a primary symptom in these infections
If it infects a food source then victims could suffer food poisoning resulting in diarrhea and vomiting.
Other symptoms that may occur are sweating, abdominal pain and nausea.
Recovery time ranges from 13 days to 6 weeks.
Nice to see our tax payer dollars at work making things worse for the taxpayer. Dang it, what is wrong with these … people. Hugs

I’ve learned that despite the titles men give themselves some are cold and don’t care.
Those people are mixed in everywhere on earth, in every group, every party, every religion, every movement, they are simply everywhere. They stay hidden but they are usually the ones who are the most agreeable where they are.
They always go with whatever everyone else wants, no matter how monstrous it is.

There is a dark back story with 5G. I will most likely put out an article in the future, but I think you may be interested to know that there are people who have to move after it’s put in.
They can’t sleep well, and they get headaches. (not everyone) just a small percentage of people.
There’s more but I think you will start googling if you are interested.
It is literally another case of more tech less people.

My proposal is a bit more nuanced than that. For one thing, political candidates should be required to pass core competency tests prior to being allowed to run for office. If all other professional trades require a license to operate, why should politicians be exempted from meeting similar standards? Second, citizens should also be required to demonstrate they meet minimal educational standards before they can cast a ballot. Third, officeholders should be subject to immediate recall for any breach of trust. Finally, the system should be structured so that such breaches of trust have negligible consequences.
And yes, I’m fully aware that this proposal would be a hard sell given the current political climate.

You stated — “Second, citizens should also be required to demonstrate they meet minimal educational standards before they can cast a ballot.”
You stated — Does this mean that all citizens will be presented with educational opportunities regardless of the ability to pay for it so that they have a chance to work in office?
You stated — “Third, officeholders should be subject to immediate recall for any breach of trust.”
My response — Does their own party get to decide if there is a breach of trust or the opposition party?

1. The tests would be designed to weed out unsuitable/incompetent candidates. But life comes with no guarantees, so a charlatan might still pass through the gates. Hence the reason for rule number three.
2. I stated that citizens wishing to vote would need to meet minimal educational standards prior to casting a ballot. Since taxpayer-funded public education is already in place this should not pose a great challenge. But to answer your question: those aspiring to run for public office would have to acquire the necessary credentials at their own expense — the same as for any other profession.
3. By design, office holders are ultimately beholden to enact the wishes of their electors, not their parties. Therefore the electors retain the ultimate right to hold a recall.
4. We obviously can’t undo the past; but that doesn’t mean we can’t institute preventive measures to mitigate against the possibility of repeating them.

My response — I’ve never seen a test that can’t be passed in a desired way through money and training. Are there any real-world examples of such a test that I could review?
You stated – “citizens wishing to vote would need to meet minimal educational standards prior to casting a ballot. Since taxpayer-funded public education is already in place this should not pose a great challenge.”
My response — If all that is needed is a high Scholl education then clearly there is no office that has specialized educational needs. I find that a bit strange, are you sure that is all that would be needed? Or are you saying tax provided education exceeds high school?
You stated — “By design, office holders are ultimately beholden to enact the wishes of their electors, not their parties. Therefore the electors retain the ultimate right to hold a recall.”
My response — So the voters who voted them in should be able to vote them out? This sounds a lot like what we currently have in place. I think you are saying you want more recall options but the challenge may be that during a recall you get the same party line vote. I’m not convinced this is a viable option that would be effective.
You stated — “but that doesn’t mean we can’t institute preventive measures to mitigate against the possibility of repeating them.”
My response — What would such a measure look like? Do you have a proposed example of how to stop a government from making the same mistakes it’s been making since conception?

1. I’m not sure exactly what you are asking. The whole point of any technical or professional educational undertaking is to acquire the requisite skills needed to fufill the basic job requirements so you can pass the vetting process. Moreover, your starting position is usually commensurate with your level of practical experience. How is this a problem?
2. Again, the educational requirements placed on the voters would be less stringent than those placed on the candidates. I’m referring to the fundamental objects of primary education required to create informed and productive citizens outlined in Jefferson’s Rockfish Gap Report:
3. I’m saying that electors must retain the right to recall representatives who abandon their duties and responsibilities under the constitution. So yes: it’s viability is entirely dependent upon the willingness of the people to enforce and uphold their constitutional rights.
4. For examples of these preventive measures I’ll refer you to the founding documents. Unfortunately, those safeguards have been stripped away by each successive administration ever since the ink dried.

I would say that case law is effectively stripping constitutional rights from the citizens and again lack of knowledge of this happening is an issue.
