If so, I suspect it is about to be granted.
We have a much better understanding of life and how life works for most these days. Bills don't pay themselves. Products don't manufacture themselves and get themselves to market. Food doesn't grow itself, process itself, ship itself and stock itself either. So, how are you going to live with most of America shutdown again? Wouldn't it be nice if we could just snap our fingers and make COVID go away?
Our theory, right or wrong, is if we had shut down sooner, and longer, we could have stopped the virus like some other countries did. But it is very contagious. Corona came here and thought, oh boy! A libertarian country! Yum yum yum! What a feast! We're a country that no longer knows how to act for the benefit of others and society. Those things you mention don't happen by themselves, and they don't happen through individual initiative either. Sick Reaganism has now literally made us sick.
As that famous conservative General Patton said, "this individuality stuff is a bunch of crap!" Even he knew that an army was a joint cooperative venture, not an individualist adventure. Your method has FAILED. It's time to give the other team a chance. Perhaps Joe can persuade a few more people not to be bravado and stupid, and to wear a mask and keep distance for a while. He's not going to have the national guard distribute the vaccine. What a stupid idea! Your guy may know how to do a TV show, but he does NOT know how to run a country!
