the governments are going to blame it on the people for refusing to react. but, this is disingenuous, and deflective - they need to take responsibility for a failure in policy.
it's not up to the people to do what the government tells them, it's up to the government to interpret reality correctly and act intelligently to protect the people that need it.
but, we will probably learn all of the wrong lessons, and we will probably make the same mistakes again.
if they die nice and quickly, this needless economic mess should at least become an opportunity, for some. if it drags on, that won't happen.
welcome to collectivism, kids - the system where we all suffer equally, for the benefit of the weakest in the herd.
