So.. now that Biden's inauguration is only hours away, I'd like to pose a question to you guys.
Obviously, the greatest challenge currently facing the world, and the USA in particular, is the corona pandemic. It will take months, maybe until next winter until vaccination will have any real impact on the trajectory. With control of both chambers, as well as the presidency, democrats have a wide array of possibilities to combat this pandemic.
While I doubt that anyone would argue that they should be faulted for what happened before they took over, I am already guessing that there will be some debate on when they should be. After all, the democratic process takes time, and there is a lag between implementing measures and them being statistically detectable.
I think we should do this discussion now, rather than in a couple of months.
And mind you, this is obviously only a discussion about the federal level responses.
