Congress Did a Poor Job

Congress Did a Poor Job
Excerpt: I probably spoke imprecisely; the U.S. government does not have a Third World structure or response to the coronavirus crisis. But some of our members of Congress are treating it with the rank opportunism, selfishness, small-mindedness, greed, and provincialism we associate with Third World kleptocrats, tinpot dictators, and other leaders who make bad situations worse. The house is burning down, and they’re blocking the fire truck from getting to the scene because the firefighters don’t plan to use their preferred kind of fire hose.
