Walk back.
Look at the hapless response to Hurricane Maria. You see any difference between that and the hapless response to Covid19? I don't. Hurricane Katrina? Ditto.
Consider the need to replace the year old train tunnels that service New York. Nope can't do it.
California needs to build a high speed rail system to deal with increased commuter and air traffic? Watch people get into a rage at the idea.
The US healthcare system is completely out of control. Costs twice what other countries systems cost, with worse outcomes and large numbers of unserved people. Lots of countries have systems that work. But reform is impossible.
The underlying cause here isn't technical. It's nihilist ideology.
