When "health professionals" become as incorruptible as the gods they want you to believe they are, maybe they'll be worth listening to. In the last century, they have sold themselves to the highest bidder. Whores and parasites.
And not just 'health professionals.'
1.From their inception in academia, mid-19th century, the Progressives put all faith in experts….these folks were imagined to be able to dictate exactly how society and the lives of its citizens should….must….be regulated, for the best outcomes. It is a central view to every collective regime: communism, socialism, Liberalism, Progressivism, Nazism and Fascism.
The opposite is the view of the free market, based on the myriad voluntary interactions of free individuals. The species is wiser than the individual (Burke). No matter who that individual is.
It should be self-evident that the collectivist varieties, to exist, use force, coercion, violence, and threats of same to enforce that ‘expert’s’ view. And every one of the totalitarian visions does; free choice requires no such coercion.
2. And ‘experts’ can never be wrong.
"It is a great irony of communism that those who did not believe in God believed that godlike knowledge could be concentrated at a central point. It was believed that government could be omnipotent and omniscient. And in order to justify the idea that all lives should be determined by a single plan, the concomitant tendency of communist regimes was to deify the leader- whether Lenin, Stalin, Mao, or Kim Il-sung."
Tom Bethell, "The Noblest Triumph," p. 144
Democrat/Liberals called Obama god, Jesus and the messiah.
3. Even better when the expert is the political leader (have you noticed how every Democrat candidate is claimed to be brilliant, while every Republican is said to be a moron?). Mao’s ‘Great Leap Forward’ was based on that fallacy, that technocrats, bureaucrats, experts are always correct.
