You're right! Who remembers Y2K with people building bunkers, and stockpiling food. Remember the newspaper articles of the "ethics" while your neighbors are starving and you have stockpiled food?

And more recent than that was the 2009 Swine Flu outbreak... when 100-200k dead was floated, then quietly put to bed. It ended up being just over 12.5k dead... no where near even 100k. It took them 2yrs to collect the final figures & realize mortality rate was pretty low. In fact more people died from swine flu THIS YEAR. But no one cares, because the new kid on the block is sucking all the air out of the room
