951: Tom Cruise and the (almost) impossible mission of keeping film crews in masks. @johntamny
Image: 1942 Hollywood, California. Shoppers John Tamny, @johntamny, RealClearPolitics; author, When Politicians Panic; in re: Tom Cruise yelled at his film crew of Mission: Impossible 7for failing to wear masks responsibly. Why? He’s actually running a business; needs to keep his operation insured and his investors content. Robert Downey is the highest-paid actor in Hollywood; was formerly unable to get hired because of a substance abuse problem. The lockdowns, the protocols, have been remarkably unsuccessful, vide:New York, New Jersey, California. The politicians keep closing businesses, destroying lives, still refuse to acknowledge that they erred. With the same population as New York, Florida is doing much better. If we hadn’t had the benefit of the spectacular economic success that obtained until February 2020, we couldn't have survived the [strangulation] of business that’s occurred in the last ten months.
