In my capacity as a former member of the Teamsters Union, I have taken some interest in the crusade by Canadian truckers against covid mandates. I am reminded of what Grant wrote about Confederate soldiers. It was something to the effect that the Confederates had fought very well, and no one had ever fought for a worse cause.
The Confederates were fighting for freedom, of course, the freedom to own women and men.
The truckers have been fighting for freedom, too, the freedom to spread a disease. That may qualify as the second worse cause ever fought for on this continent.
