"Our world is a reflection of incentives, and the best America has to offer — our smartest, our bravest, our most creative — are not incentivized to politics." So true. Instead they go into finance and tech. Properly incentivized, this could change. Singapore figured it out.

"Covid spikes across the country have prompted the European Union to restrict travel from the United States" The real reason is retaliation. EU citizens cannot travel to the US for 570 days now. The EU hoped the US will remove the travel ban when they do, the US didn't.
