Just how tough is the United States of America

Talking to a Doctor friend today and the subject was C-19 and wearing/not wearing of masks at first.

Then we went, went on talking and then to us both realizing and agreeing, just how much this country has changed since the greatest generation. Gone is the exceptionalism of the past it so seems today. Our forefathers would be ashamed of what we have done to the country they left to us.

Talk a big and loud game! Just do not have the stomach for when it gets hard.

That when our time came to be tested as a country, make the sacrifices required. Roll up our sleeves and go to work as one fighting against a common enemy.

We as a whole failed miserably.

Just how weak and selfish the nation has become. That wearing a simple mask to help protect others if not yourself.

Is to much to ask!

Going to the beach swimming, getting a tattoo a haircut eating at a restaurant a bar is more important then another's health or life.

Selfish and weak!

Now it can be argued that with a great leader at the helm with a party that is in control of the senate. That this could of been different. With a game plan and using science as a guide.

Who knows with the amount of disinformation and conspiracies that a segment would rather believe then facts. I fear there still would of been gridlock and indecision. For the fact people do not want to suffer any inconveniences. To many live for today not planning for tomorrow.
