Crying wolf over swine flu.

I am starting to remember all of the other officially sponsored panics of the last 20 years from eggs to chicken [Or was it the other way around?], CJD and countless more.

Add all of these to global warming - oh ... er ... I mean climate change - and we see a pattern emerging.

We have governments trying to manipulate the populations of the world. The problem is that each scare gets less scary and so one day when a true crisis comes along ... Admittedly, it could even be this one further down the line but I seriously doubt it.
