Child Car Seats as Birth Control?

Car seats cause fewer children to exist.

From the Journal of Law and Economics:

We show that laws mandating use of child car safety seats significantly reduce birth rates, as many cars cannot fit three child seats in the back seat. Women with two children younger than their state’s age mandate have a lower annual birth probability of .73 percentage points. This effect is limited to births of third children, households with access to a car, and households with a male present, where both front seats are likely to be occupied. We estimate that these laws prevented fatalities of 57 children in car crashes in 2017 but reduced total births by 8,000 that year and have decreased the total by 145,000 since 1980.

Senator Ron Johnson Discusses the US Corruption and Incompetence re the COVID “Vax”

Senator Johnson sums up the corruption and incompetence regarding the COVID "vax." I created the transcript (below) based on this post by "Chief Nerd."

Our response to COVID? None of it made sense to me. You know, Peter McCulloch had the four pillars of pandemic response: Try and limit the spread, early treatment, hospital treatment and vaccines. You know, we certainly tried to stop the spread by destroying our economy, destroying small businesses. That didn't make sense, but we completely sabotaged early treatment, hospital treatment. I mean, let's face it, they developed protocols that killed people. You put some you slap somebody on a ventilator, you know, 89% chance they weren't ever going to get off. So everything was directed toward a vaccine.

Very early on, I was talking to the CEO of one of the manufacturers of hydroxychloroquine in April. He's really excited about this. You know, he provided like, 30,000 doses to the national stockpile, and they were going to do all kinds of studies. They're going to come out toward the end of May. But all of a sudden, tail end of April, early May, the communication just went dead silent. It's like everybody in the industry just agreed, we're we're going to focus on the vaccine, nothing else.

And then, fortunately for me, I got connected with Michael Eden, who for 30 years was a [illegible] of Pfizer companies, especially toxicity. He was in the end of his career, the Senior Vice President, in terms of research for Pfizer. He could not believe what his colleagues were developing. He was beside himself. He said, you know, Ron, there's a whole list of ingredients that we do not put into injectables because they're toxic to the body. When I found out that they were going to produce an injectable that caused the body cells, to produce something that was toxic to it. He literally could not believe that. He researched it further and found out exactly what they're going to do. So he came on and became very public of it. And again, fortunately he educated me. There was no way I was ever going to get that injection, and I started trying to warn people very early on.

I'm not a doctor, not a medical researcher, but I just used what information was available publicly. The VAERS report. I'm the first one that probably got censored, with the VAERS chart showing this explosion in deaths associated with COVID 19 vaccine. Now I presented that, I think, end of April, to Francis Collins. I'm talking to Francis Collins. "Are you watching VAERS?" I think at the time, there were a few 1000 deaths. 46% of those deaths were occurring on the day of vaccination, within two days. Wow. So when I confront him with that . . . he said, Senator, people die. That's what a cavalier attitude he had toward that.

Really raised my antenna in terms of the corruption, in terms of CDC, the FDA, the NIH in terms of just ignoring the safety signals that were screaming at them, and they continue to ignore it. They continue to cover it up. So no, I've seen the corruption. We should have always been pushing early treatment we should have been exploring. And by the way, he lied to me the end of December of 2020 when I pressed him from those hearings. What is what is the NIH doing in terms of exploring early treatments? Oh, Senator, we're spending hundreds of millions of dollars on exploring every molecule on the shelf. So go show me where you spend the money. Show me what you've studied. Never got that information.

So again, these guys have been lying to me since, really day one, since the COVID pandemic occurred. And they haven't stopped lying, and they certainly haven't been transparent to American public. So no, I don't, I won't trust them further than I could throw them.

News You Can and Cannot Trust

"Everything you’ve been told about everything is bullshit,” Rogan declares, urging people to see the pattern. It’s not about dwelling on past grievances but recognizing the manipulation baked into every major issue.

Why, Rogan asks, were borders flung open? Why were people handed money and moved to swing states? Why do bills sneak through Congress loaded with “crazy stuff”? The answers lie beyond the polished scripts of news anchors.

Mainstream commentary, he argues, is a distraction—a cacophony of nonsense designed to obscure truth. To find real answers, you must bypass the noise.

Rogan points to voices like Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi, and Michael Shellenberger—journalists who cut through the fog with raw, nonpartisan facts.

These are the people digging into primary sources, exposing what’s hidden, and delivering unfiltered reality. “If you want the truth,” Rogan insists, “you have to seek it out yourself.”

I agree with Joe Rogan here. The legacy media's highly coordinated mass deception has been apparent to me only because I've consciously tracked the legacy news and spotted the patterns, documenting the patterns and the hypocrisy hundreds of times on my website. Otherwise, I wouldn't have believed what was happening. Closely tracking the lies and sophisticated "news" manipulation is how I stopped being a consumer of news. Legacy news outlets don't offer you facts and invite you to think for yourself. Rather, they put you into a constant state of tribalistic apprehension and tell you how to think. If you don't get this problem deep in your every bone, you are no longer self-actualized, no matter how things might feel to you, because your feelings have been hijacked. You have become someone else's pawn:

Kuhnian Paradigm Shift on Display

Kuhnian paradigm shift on display here. These days, we almost never see a nuanced give and take where the parties admit their doubts and confidence levels in real time as their understanding shifts. I suspect tribalism is the cause but I have no idea regarding a solution for the problem that we can't civilly discuss ideas with people with whom we disagree.

The Correlation Between Vaccinations and SIDS

I don't know who to trust any more. So many things that I used to believe have crumbled in the past five years. That said, this correlation between vaccinations and SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) is very concerning. I'd like to know more about this correlation. If these numbers are true, this is a damning indictment of the pharmaceutical industry. Title of the article: "Vaccines and sudden infant death: An analysis of the VAERS database 1990–2019 and review of the medical literature."

Toxicology Reports is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal published by Elsevier, dedicated to all aspects of toxicology research and clinical sciences. Nicholas Hulscher is an epidemiologist.
