I spoke to an 84 year old man who grew up in the Soviet Union a while back, and we talked about a lot of things, but there were a few things that stuck with me.

>I know communism. I grew up under communism, and I know it when I see it. I don't like what I see in America today. I fled the Soviet Union to come here. If America falls, there will be nowhere left to flee.
I replied
>Yeah, the kids who are championing communism have no idea what they're advocating. They're so naive.
He replied
>Naive isn't a strong enough word.

He went on to talk about how obviously overblown this whole covid thing is, and how he thinks its all a giant power grab being used to control people. He said
>telling us to wear a mask to protect ourselves from the virus is like putting up a chain link fence around your house to protect it from mosquitos

The reason the whole mask thing gets me is because, as I understand it, the original plan was not to s stop the virus but to flatten the so-called curve so that hospitals weren't overwhelmed with a surge of patients. It wasn't about stopping people from ever getting the virus because that's not how you handle a pandemic - exposure is inevitable. But then somewhere along the way we lost the plot, or the elite intentionally disposed of the plot for us. It's not about "flattening the curve" anymore, it actually became about completely isolating people so that no one ever gets exposed. It's not enough to social distance anymore, now you have to wear a mask and stand six feet apart regardless of where you are, inside or outside. One kid at an elementary school got sick? Better shut the whole goddamn school down. You want to have an outdoor gathering in a wide open field? Nope, can't do that - someone might get sick. We fucking lost the plot. It's not about the virus. It's about controlling the people.

I don't disagree that US officials mostly have used ad hoc solutions for a problem other countries have already figured out, but this is more pure incompetence and pride than any kind of power grab. The way the virus is best contained is through contact tracing (ie finding out who people have interacted with so everyone can self-quarantine). The problem being that people actually will not do that because freedom, cannot do that because their job is at stake, or don't even know to do it in the first place because no one has informed them they may have been exposed.

It seems pretty obvious, right? That there would be a system in place to figure out who all interacted with an infected person? Not in the US.

Well, it's a mix. It's truer to say that it's not at the level many other developed countries, but it does exist like you said. The problem being states are the ones doing it, and some states are more or less gungho about it than others.
