Very important message. Governments are strapped and cutting costs, and natural disasters and (hopefully not any more but possibly) outbreaks and pandemics seem to be happening way more often these days. People everywhere would be wise to be even a bit better prepared for anything, and consider ways to help not just themselves but others as well should disaster strike.

I think a bit of preparation and planning can go a long wayтАж and IтАЩm inspired by the work of LA mask blocs and covid activists. TheyтАЩre really showing whatтАЩs possible when youтАЩre committed to caring about others!

ItтАЩs fair to say that the American government isnтАЩt broke, itтАЩs been undercharging taxes every Republican administration since Reagan, due to massive tax cuts for the wealthy and large corporations. We were functioning well until Reagan. We need to get that status quo back.

I would just like to see them spend a bit more on preparedness, vulnerable populations, public health etcтАж there was no good reason they couldnтАЩt have been ready with respirators and clean air in LA. ItтАЩs simply not a priority.

Hopefully that changes in the future!
