But that takes a massive concentration of money. Rich people.

the error that people are making is in assuming that rich people are monolithic, they're not, the 0.001% is totally different from the 1%, they don't talk with each other that much, and they're not much in control: e.g. bill gates can't even get the cdc to do good testing

Of course bill gates can’t just roll into an agency paid for by tax payers and tell them what to do. Even if the CDC has been run by dimwits and cronies of government officials funded by rich people, that kind of direct, transparent access would be too revealing to people.

it's like, there's this giant organization, they have the testing, they have the data, they're making the point that not only all there all of these simple methods to avoid the bottleneck but the 8 day delay is going to spread the disease & the CDC just sits on it it's different

That giant organization has been hijacked by ultra right evangelists who don’t even believe in science. This is the “deal” Trump made it get elected. And the devil in the details of this deal (ie people like dr Redfield) is now killing hundreds of thousands of Americans.

There is a LOT of money behind these appointments (no senate approval required), and its a pyramid scheme of fundraising from poor and middle class devout (zealot) Christians by fully cynical wealthy a-holes to push those medieval agendas and make massive $$$$ in the process.

No, this is a crazy cancer, it can & must be removed. One way is just to connect dots. Forensics. Another is to organize. And a third way, to never give up. Supermen like Elon are great as solvers of specifics. Its delusional of them & us to try apply those superpowers generally

Ok I will concede that nobody is in control in any effective way for a whole change, but that is part of how corruption works: create chaos and pull strings in the rubble.

“[Redfield‘s] 2018 nomination was a triumph for the Christian right, a coup in particular for evangelical activists Shepherd and Anita Smith, who have been instrumental in driving a global AIDS strategy centered on abstinence.” CDC!!!!
