"If you live in a rich country, you’re probably not going to get cholera from
your drinking water. The state accepts the responsibility of waterborne disease
elimination as an obvious duty of governance, and the state and the collective
then benefit from a healthier population, more able to participate in the
economy and work.
Let’s say tomorrow the US government decided to stop cleaning our water supply.
President Joe Biden or one of his minions gets on TV and says “cholera has been
defeated, it’s over, and we need to get back to normal. We can’t live in fear
of cholera forever- we need to live our lives!” Massive cholera outbreaks
ensue, and people are quietly told they can (pay out of pocket) for private
water filtration systems. Those who do pay this burdensome individual tax are
told they are living in fear and mocked by those who do not. People with
cholera are pushed by their employers to come to work anyway, and CDC guidance
reduces cholera isolation to one day, whether or not you’re still symptomatic
or infectious.
If this all sound patently ridiculous, like a brutally misguided approach to
“protecting the economy,” and like an extremely obvious way for the state to
save money and shirk responsibility for collective good, congratulations! You
now understand why so many on the left are aghast at the current state of the
country and world’s COVID response (there is none.)"
