"I believe that human beings evolved in small or medium size tribes. So we are optimized to be living in a community where everybody knows each other and there is one chief who has to deal with all the disputes and makes the rules.
Scaling this system up to a country of 378 Million people is definitely a challenge, but I think our Constitutional Republic did it the best."
Nice observation. This is evident by state's rights (50 tribes settling disputes with their own rules...if properly implemented).
Have States have much of the power has served us well in this crisis.
We can compare how New York has handled it verses Florida and compare.
For example I don't recall Florida forcing nursing homes to take in sick covid-19 patients.
We can see how well draconian lockdowns/mask/holiday restrictions do against states that did pretty much nothing.
