      From: johnny@invalid.net              By Fox News Staff        Published April 12, 2022              Jesse Watters said Tuesday that it's difficult to trust experts when they       continuously get it wrong, highlighting inflation, coronavirus lockdowns and       climate change warnings.               JESSE WATTERS: Experts are supposed to have all the answers. But what       we're finding out today is that experts have a lot to say, but most of       it is wrong. Let's look at inflation. The experts said this was a       transitory phase. … Inflation has skyrocketed to a 40-year high. How       could the experts not see this coming? They pumped out trillions in       COVID relief — the largest flood of federal money in world history. Not       to mention the Fauci lockdowns wrecked supply chains. Experts told us       it was a good idea because lockdowns save lives. … Because of the       experts, we locked down. People lost their jobs, their small       businesses, kids suffered and inflation built up, all for nothing. A       Johns Hopkins study found lockdowns had little to no effect on COVID       deaths. Where could the experts have gotten this stupid lockdown idea       from? China, of course. … What a good idea. Let's take lockdown advice       from the people who unleashed the virus on us and then lied about it.              Nowhere, though, have experts been more wrong than on climate change.       Since the 1970s, experts have been telling us we're just a couple of       years away from extinction. In 1967, experts predicted a dire famine       was coming in 1975 and it was too late to avoid it. I wasn't even born       yet, but I think I would have read about the famine of '75. In 1971,       experts told The Washington Post that a new Ice Age would be here in       the next 50 years. Well, it's 51 years later and 65 degrees here in New       York. In 1989, experts at the U.N. warned that rising seas would       obliterate nations if global warming wasn't reversed by the year 2000,       and in 2004, the experts at the Pentagon told Bush that climate change       will destroy us, it's a bigger threat than terrorism and that Britain       would feel like Siberia by 2020. All wrong.              https://www.foxnews.com/media/watters-inflation-experts-prediction-wrong              Was Fauci one of these experts? I guess you can find experts on any       topic, but which ones can you believe, when they all say their decisions       are based on scientific facts?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
