Americans have been trained over the last few decades to expect so little from govt, propagandized to believe govt actually helping them is a bad thing. It’s a tragic surrender to corporate control & a betrayal of the ideal of govt “of the people, by the people & for the people.”

I don't think anyone is saying government help in times of crisis is a bad thing. There is, however, considerable debate over what constitutes "help".
Not right now there isn’t! This isn’t theory we’re talking here now, this is people’s’ lives. Ventilators. PPE. Medicine. Real financial bailout for the average citizen, not just for huge companies.

I don’t disagree with any of that. I also think rapid, scalable response capabilities should have been in place and managed in a decentralized manner, primarily from the metro/municipal level. Most of the biggest failures stemmed from over-reliance on top-down management.
