Your perspective on this seems to be a bit U.S.-centric. No developed country in the world botched its national response to Covid-19 as badly as the United States did. In several countries — like Australia and New Zealand — public trust in government has grown as the public benefited greatly from its government’s world class results in handling the Covid pandemic. Granted, it does seem that most people these days consider their own government to be at the very least incompetent. But I don’t get the sense countries like Australia have anywhere near the same level of anti-government resentment to contend with. It seems to me a good deal of the blame for the dysfunction of modern America falls on American culture. > There's the climate crisis, which is the root cause of the migration crisis. I’d think quality of life factors and economic opportunity would be the primary drivers for migration from the global south to North America and Western Europe. Am I misreading your take on this? It’s a bit of a leap to pin it all onto climate change.
