    No matter how we deal with it in the US, it's going to be bad, because the measures which would protect people during this time are politically unacceptable.
     
    We will get to choose between different flavors of bad, but we can't have "not bad" because there are people who flip the table when that option is presented.

    Well, we did. It's just that someone took them apart for political reasons.

    Near as I can tell only one side is actively risking American lives through blatant corruption and incompetence.  But it's true that we should avoid hurting anyone's feelings too.

    Labor does the work. Labor takes the risks. Labor gets the health problems. Labor dies the deaths.
     
    Capital gets the money.
     
    It's time to change that.

    Workers of the world unite? Seize the means of production? I know that universal healthcare and universal basic income are going to become significantly more popular now that we have strong historical precedent (namely: this pandemic) to emphasize their necessity.

    It's interesting to note that this pandemic shows us who's really important to society. When the celebrities and the rich cower in their mansions, no one misses them. It's the "lowest"  of the workers who are the most necessary to society. We need to ensure that society provides for them.

    I think it's already started. The Trump administration has made it clear that we can't depend on the federal government. The states are going to have to step up to the plate themselves on important issues.
     
    I don't like saying that. I think a strong, sensible federal government is necessary for a nation, but . . . the federal government we have right now is neither strong nor sensible.
