Ideally, they could decree companies to prioritize shipments to hospitals and health workers and set-up a task force to route all purchase decisions through the govt. until mask shortage is solved.
> So the easiest solution was to do politics which is to deceive
I disagree. politics is not to deceive. Politics is to guide and educate. The longer we accept the rationale that politics is inherently an immoral game, the more our minds accept the status quo.
Those politicians who lied must be held accountable. Those who pushed for the truth but took actions to prioritize health workers should be rewarded.
- outime 6y agoYeah there are better solutions but they’re not the easiest nor the fastest. Lying ticked those boxes and so they did it that way in many places. Politics is IMHO all or a majority about deception unfortunately and once you accept this these actions just make more sense and you stop playing their silly game. I decided to move to a smaller and more healthy democracy because I knew degeneration of politics back in my (somewhat big) country was only going to get much worse and in some cases that can mean literal death to me and I could do nothing to change it. Well, all this is way too off-topic so let’s leave it for another time as it’s an interesting one :)
