The answer cannot be a choice between “lose all your freedoms forever” or “the virus kills a million Americans”.
- crooked-v 7y agoProbably closer to several million if stricter measures aren't taken, because the severe cases will overload hospitals and there won't be enough ventilation equipment and doctors to go around.
- rorykoehler 7y agoYou have the freedom to take personal responsibility in a time of crisis. Despite the zeitgeist freedom doesn't have to be all about being dangerously selfish.
- ramblerman 7y agoTrusting people to take personal responsibility and act appropriately has failed in every country so far. Even Switzerland. Do you believe the US is special in this regard?
- rorykoehler 7y agoWhere did I mention any country? I only have to walk 3 mins outside my apartment in Berlin to find cafes teeming with irresponsible idiots. It's unbelievably demoralising.
