The Economics of Ebola

We’ve previously discussed The Smallest Immigrants. Though another worthy addition to our “rich tapestry” of undocumented pathogens has arrived. There is now a confirmed case of Ebola in Dallas, with the upside of the infected having contact with several children who have all been attending their local indoctrination mill. Hopefully this won’t lead to an encroachment of communicable diseases into the normal classroom curriculum of white malfeasance. At long last, has this virus no sense of decency?

Though this is exactly the type of occurrence that could proliferate into a clarifying event. Ebola could have easily been prevented from arriving to these shores. Simply block all traffic and personnel from the infected areas. That’s all. Doctors who wished to conspicuously display their virtue could either attend to the sick domestically pro bono or indulge themselves in Africa with the foreknowledge that this was a one-way ticket until the epidemic was extinguished. But of course, that would both inconvenience the peacocks and violate our fundamentalist modern pieties. It would be unfortunate if thousands of Americans expired via eyesocket exsanguination, though if diversity were impacted, well, that would be an even greater tragedy. But to a great many, watching a loved one excruciatingly perish to a disease that was wholly preventable will focus the mind. Hopefully on the two-legged rodents that imported it.

Our society’s maladaptive behavior has resulted from two primary components: numbers and price. White liberals, and those who do the thinking for them, smashed the social compact by importing foreign proxies to overwhelm their own people. Almost like a family argument decided by one side inviting in 14 strangers to settle the debate. A victory as brief as it is sweet. As for price, most have avoided the direct costs of vibrancy. And those who do are not always able to contemplate the indirect costs, like strained services, higher taxes, and stagnated wages.

Ebola infections, in contrast, represent quite direct costs. And will possibly even lead to calculations in minds previously able only to fathom “Second down and six to go.” Calculations such as racial antipathies are growing and becoming multifaceted; taxes and prices keep increasing; high-paying jobs are scarce and many going to foreigners; universities are astronomical and openly discriminate against my children; air travel has become insufferable; the police state is armed like the First Infantry division; the federal government has become openly hostile; ever-growing swaths of formerly beautiful cities are now third world criminal enterprise zones. And now fatal exotic diseases have come to stalk our country.
