Our Governments,not Political,just An Objective Discussion.
Hello to All!
I just posted this on my FB page and thought I would share this thought. This isn't political, in the sense that one part or the other would have handled this situation any better, but just my personal, objective response on how the Unitied States and other governments have handled the Ebola crisis in North Africa. We and by "we" the World had an chance to control this and in the process, save possibly thousands of lives, now and in the future and yet, "we" didn't. This is directed towards "my" government, the United States of America, but all major governments now share the blame.
When wake up tomorrow, I will not be surprised to learn of more victims, infected by the nurse from Dallas and then later, the people on that plane, 170 or so. Along with the 76(?) now in quarantine in Dallas, who know what number this will be,by weeks end's end. I mentioned President Obama in my FB post, but really, doesn't matter who's or what party is in charge,does it now?
Here's the FB post:
"We ALL think that the United States is this all powerful and perfect nation. Everything we do is right and perfect. Well, that ain't it at all! Everyone from the President down, are just normal folk and all make mistakes and bad judgement calls. The U.S. should have been all over this a few months ago, instead of letting this blow up and then come to America. That decision, from Obama on down was wrong,along with lot's of other decisions, drone bombing of innocents,etc. is symptomatic of us, as a nation and a people. We all make mistakes, it's just that the people we elect, sometimes their mistakes,are costly. I voted for Obama twice and on many levels, am disappointed with him and his people. But to allow this Ebola to come to the U.S. and now possibly to all those that were on that plane with this new victim, is typical of OUR government,regardless of party or politics. We may be in for a rough ride. A few days ago, before they found out about this new infected nurse, ALL the talk was about "This isn't Africa and we are prepared!" Well ask those 70 or so people that are now quarantined and the soon to be people from that flight from Ohio to Dallas, if we, the United States has this under control. We couldn't even get a web site to work! How do the people in NJ feel about how the government handled that hurricane? We ALL need to realize that our government isn't the answer to all problems. And in some cases, causes larger problems than the original. We had 1 case of Ebola, not many days ago and now, WHO knows? If you agree with this or have something to add, please do, but don't just hit the like button, this is way too important.................Rich Franco"
