Most of the problems Americans are presently facing are a direct result of the ambivalent, capitalistic system in which they live. While the majority of developed countries paid businesses to not lay off workers and keep them on their payroll, the US is reaching an unemployment-

rate of nearly 18%.

While most developed countries are unilaterally waving mortgages and debt, the US is leaving that power up to the states to decide. While most developed nations are directly providing medical supplies to the hospitals that need it, the US gov. is piratically-

Handing over their supplies to private industries to then sell to states that bid the highest on them. While most developed countries are making the call to reopen their economies based on scientific data and medical advise, the US is deciding to reopen based on the desire to-

Keep their economy moving forward at the cost of lives. While most citizens in developed countries are contentedly riding out the flattening of the curve, knowing well their country will ensure they're provided for, the American people are left to fend for themselves-

Further heightening anxiety and ensuring ill-informed conservative groups eager to provide for their families again and return to normalcy take to the streets to protest the quarantine put in place to safeguard the lives of them and their families. What I'm saying is, the strife-

Felt in the US right now could have been avoided and was instead manufactured to be as uncomfortable and cataclysmic as possible because, while most civilized governments ensure the wellbeing of their people, the US government safeguards its economy over the common good.
