-“FEE ( Foundation Economic Education) points out that advocates of big government—and even government officials themselves—will be the last ones to acknowledge that the most deadly stretch of COVID-19 has “long since come to an end in the U.S.” Explaining the hesitation behind the motives of those currently in power, as well as sharing its opinion in more detail, FEE explains:

Why? Because the rhetoric of “emergency” and “crisis” is the government’s favorite tool to use in expanding and maintaining its power over our lives. But, whether politicians like it or not, the COVID-19 crisis is largely over. So don’t fall for cynical arguments from power-hungry individuals who want their “emergency” powers to become permanent.”
