Health
“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution the time will come when medicine will organize itself into an undercover dictatorship. To restrict the art of healing to doctors and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science. All such laws are un-American and despotic.”
― Benjamin Rush -
Economy
“You know what's truly weird about any financial crisis? We made it up. Currency, money, finance, they're all social inventions. When the sun comes up in the morning it's shining on the same physical landscape, all the atoms are in place.”
― Bruce Sterling -
Freedom
Freedom is never given; it is won.
Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
Freedom is something that dies unless it's used. Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes.

Covid, Tango and The Lagom Way - by York film maker Claudia Nye
A 45-minute documentary made by Claudia Nye, an Argentinian film maker who now lives just across the river from me in York (UK). It compares her experiences of the ongoing crisis - and the responses to it - in both the UK and Sweden.
Claudia manages to interweave her love of tango dancing and her experience as a relationship therapist with excerpts of an interview she was granted with Anders Tegnell (Sweden's Chief Medical Officer) to produce a fascinating - and very engaging - piece of work. She filmed it all on practically zero budget, too!
