Question to my followers: Given that 2020 was one of the most remarkable stress tests of American society and politics in decades, I am curious to hear what folks changed their minds about this year. “I was even more right than I thought about..." entries not permitted.

Yeah the 2nd wave in relatively rich, high-state capacity countries like Spain and France was dispiriting.

Same. Failure up and down the governance stack. Appalling and took me for far more surprise than I would have thought.

How many Katrina hurricanes does it take to get people’s attention?

Genuinely curiously why? We have 50 states running their own responses, with a smattering of different insurers, with insufficient coordination amongst them. The army was the one coordinating logistics. Recipe for disaster. Seen from a mile away.

Had the Army been allowed to coordinate logistics we'd be in a far better place. It wasn't. US public health response depends on competent federal leadership, which means competent WH leadership. Republicans put Trump in the WH. Fin.

All the Cold War propaganda about Communist countries (bread lines, massive wealth gap, nepotistic dictators, oligarchs) showed up in the most capitalistic America we've seen in decades.
