Thank you very very much. All in all -- US acted as a failed state. China has total of less than 5K dead -- we are now approaching that number daily.

Thank you very very much. All in all -- US acted as a failed state. China has total of less than 5K dead -- we are now approaching that number daily.
After nine months we are still unprepared for mass vaccination. Moreover, we still don't information -- daily, weekly - by city, county -- how many people were vaccinated, percentage of total -- basic information. This is horrible incompetency for a country that wants to be "a shining example" and organizes coup after coup - to bring "democracy and freedom" (except in Saudi Arabia).
I never supported insane clown Trump but -- the rot appears to be MUCH deeper, starting with health for profit instead universal health care.
Once again, many thanks for your kind response. Stay well and my best regards, Boris
Boris, the nature of a federation is not well understood even among most US citizens. In 1776 thirteen sovereign nations surrendered a small part of their sovereignty to a central government, and wrote a constitution to keep power at the state level, closer to the people. The constitution was never written for efficiency, it was written for individual liberty. It contained many compromises, including two chambers of congress and the electoral college, to prevent the tyranny of either the majority or the federal government.
My friends in Europe and Asia point to how compliant their citizens are with government orders, never recalling that the U.S. was settled by people fleeing over-reaching governments. We don't have the submission gene built-in; we do have the freedom-to-dissent gene.
Compare annual deaths COVID19 to annual deaths from medical errors. Then recognize that a diagnosis of COVID19 and a cause of death of COVID19 are both rewarded financially, and you begin to squint. The cost of China's achieved efficiency was as many as 150M dead at the hands of authoritarian government during the 20th century. We can have another 149M plus die before paying the same cost.
