It’s profoundly depressing that Joe Biden seems almost intentionally determined to not see that a large reason why this national emergency is so unsettling for people, and why so many people are insecure in the face of it, is because of pre-existing systemic issues with our economy (including healthcare). He needs to be asked what he will do, once this crisis has passed, to fix these systemic issues so that when the next national emergency hits, fewer things are so pointedly unsettling, and fewer people have reason to feel immediately insecure.
