Memorial Day is a holiday we observe to commemorate and honor all who gave their lives to defend the freedoms we have in this country.
Maybe during this Corvid-19 situation, we ceded back some of those freedoms. I do know that the philosophical and the political question is out there like the "elephant in the room." What price tag do we put on freedom?
People say to me all the time, "if it saves just one life..." well then we should quit driving cars. Give up that freedom, so 60,000 people a year won't die. I don't know if we can make that analogy, but flattening the curve on this virus has caused us to pause and say, "at what cost?"
