. . . those charged with the custodianship of our welfare!!

This perfectly illustrates the fundamental problem!!!

Other than ourselves, there are NONE who are charged with the custodianship of our welfare. Those who consider gov't or the medical establishment as the custodians of our welfare are pusillanimous, simpering fools who have enabled and even encouraged the excesses of gov't and gov't-affiliated orgs (of which the medical establishment is one of the most powerful) to control, and limit the liberties of, the citizens of what used to be the USA.

Since you read and comment on TF, I would hope that your choice of phrase was simply an unfortunate brain-fart. If not, YOU and people who think like you are the major part of the problem with this country.
