Two Thoughts
...The resources that would have been required to save large numbers of lives were trivially, pathetically small– well within the reach of any institution, public or private, that was in the right place and had an incentive to think things through. But there is no sort of institution that has such an incentive.

Second. Nonetheless, when people in our voluntary society realized the Feds just weren’t cutting the mustard, they put on– continue to put on– an amazing, inspiring display. ...

...Rarely has it been so clear how much we, the ordinary people of this country, are better than our rulers. I hope that lesson is not lost on anyone, of any political persuasion. We are better than them and there is no good reason anymore– if ever there was– to keep on putting up with their lies.
