Speak for yourself, until the government shows it can be trusted. Their track record is awful, no thanks.
- jollybean 4y agoAgain, hyperbolic nonsense. Your government has millions of people working for it that do innumerable things from water works, electricity distribution and regulation, policing, defence. You already depend on them intimately. The naive, glib view that somehow 'we can't trust government' is blatantly contradicted by your very existed. We want to make sure oversight and controls are there, but it's bonkers to suggest we don't want health officials to understand how this pandemic played out, so that they can figure out how to deal with the next one.
