For the smug who enjoy taking a shot at the United States

We have seen multiple posts from people from other countries insinuating how much "better" of a job they've done than the United States at containing this virus.

Please allow me to caution you with a quote from one of our greatest U.S. 20th Century philosophers......

"It ain't over till it's over"

Infection surges have already started in some of the countries that did a much more "perfect" job than we did.

[Tin Man 2]

Our rate if infection is still under 1%, our numbers may be high because we have 330 million people.

[Forkin' Crazy]

They always do that. Seems at every opportunity not unlike liberals who never let a crisis go to waste...

The US is the greatest country on the planet. EVERYBODY knows that. I have been around the world. The most spoken language? English, and not because of the British. The most accepted currency? The US dollar. What other country has their language spoken nearly everywhere in the world, or their currency recognized for trade? Anybody???

Yeah, when this mess is over with, we will see where the cards fall.

South Korea seemed to do a good job with the outbreak.

A client was forced to retire at 65 from flying overseas commercial flights, So he took a job teaching S Korean pilots to fly better, If you remember a few years ago about 3 in a short period of time crashed
He told me that the culture over there is so different, people act as soldiers very obedient, one pilot that crashed said his commander was telling him to do the wrong thing and he complied thou he knew it was wrong.

Maybe, but maybe not. And Singapore's population would fit in Yankee Stadium so things are somewhat easier. My next door neighbor was on the phone with a company in Singapore the day the emergency was declared here, and they were taking extraordinary measures.

they crash so well, that finally they crashed a 777 which meant they have crashed every version of every aircraft they have ever owned

Instructors have stated that S. Korean pilots are perfect students, they can recite the flight manual line for line....they just can't fly

I've seen that being the cause of several jet crashes in Asian countries on the show Air Disasters, on the Smithsonian Channel.
