That's one point of view, I respect that, but it brings up questions. Survival, certainly at the top of the list. Are we talking about the few, or the many? Maybe it's a binary choice, maybe not. Consequences far reaching. Yep, agree again. Consequences of the virus itself, or consequences of action taken to manage the rate of infection? No argument at all that these questions are worthy of debate, and therein lies the problem, there was no debate. No legislation, no point counterpoint, no vote, just Governors and Mayors putting on their Crowns and ruling by decree. Feds guilty too. But, but, there is no time for debate, it's an emergency. And that my friend is exactly the situation which calls for pause. Not the nail dragging endless quagmire of endless political bullshit, but expedient yet thoughtful debate. We did none of that. Never considered a middle ground approach. Went straight to panic, we're all gonna die. Now we flop around in hand wringing mode while Rome burns. Business as usual in the nevet ending political game. These no good bastards can't set that aside no matter what. And they're the solution? They created the problem, again.
Experts had made the plans over years for xyz contingency. The politicians followed the plans.
In the old days everyone would tune into the same national channel, the men in white coats would speak and everyone would feel secure.
Now..
